Sorbus 'Chinese Lace'
mountain ash 'Chinese Lace' ( syn. Sorbus aucuparia 'Chinese Lace' )
An upright tree with deeply cut, dark green pinnate leaves which have a lace-like appearance. The bunches of white flowers on 'Chinese Lace' are produced in late spring followed by orange-red berries in autumn. This is an unusual variety that only grows to an eventual height of 6m (19ft 6in) so is ideal for a small garden.
