Read detailed description :

White fruits in autumn and until winter. Compact and round-shaped vegetation turning yellow in autumn. Small pink flowers in compact clumps in summer. Resistant to pollution, healthy and hardy plant. Melliferous plant. Nice when grown in low hedges, in groups in flower beds with other shrubs or on its own. It prefers cool to moist soils but tolerates dry, poor and calcareous soils. It also tolerates shade from other trees and root competition. Simon G.A. Doorenbos was a dendrologist, director of the Botanical Garden in The Hague (Den Haag), specialist for Fraxinus, Ulmus, Malus, Symphoricarpus and roses at the beginning of the 20th century.
