| Product Description |
 |
| Hawthorn (Crataegus oxycantha) is a small thorny tree or shrub that produces brilliant red clusters of berries. Native to the Mediterranean region including North Africa and all of Europe and central Asia, Hawthorn can now be found in many areas of North America. According to Christian legend, the Crown of Thorns was believed to be made of Hawthorn. Therefore, the herb was thought to possess miraculous health properties. In ancient Greece, Hawthorn was a symbol of hope and happiness, while in Rome it was considered a potent charm. Both ancient and modern herbalists have successfully used Hawthorn for its food and health benefits.
