The hawthorn shrub is not picky about the soil, but grows best on deep, moderately moist and well-drained fertile soils. Unpretentious in culture, photophilous and winter-hardy.
Watering
If living in a cold region, watering is required every 3-5 days. Water early in the morning when the soil is dry, outdoors or indoors. You can also determine the need for watering by checking the indoor soil. If the top 2-3 inches of soil is dry, it's time to water the plant.

Hawthorn feels great in open areas, where it can be planted even for decorative purposes, if the bush is originally formed. This useful plant prefers heavy but well-drained and fertile soils.
In what year does the hawthorn begin to bear fruit
