Griffitharia lanata, commonly known as hairy rowan, is a species of deciduous tree in the family Rosaceae.[1]
It measures 10–12 metres (33–39 ft) tall, rarely a shrub. G. lanata is a fruit bearing tree that flowers in May. It can grow in loamy, sandy and clay soils. G. lanata can grow in complete sunlight or semi-shaded areas. It can withstand high wind speeds, but few other harsh conditions. It is sometimes grown as an ornamental plant in stone gardens, parks and yards.[2]
Fruitedit
The fruit of G. lanata grows in bunches with fruit of 1-3 cm in diameter. The seeds of this fruit contain trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide.[3] This is not harmful as there is only a very small amount present in the seeds. There are no known medicinal properties of G. lanata and its fruit.[citation needed]
Distributionedit
G. lanata is found in cooler areas of the northern hemisphere. It is native to eastern China and the Himalayas,[3] but are also found in high grazing pastures of the British Isles.[citation needed]
