Aubépine monogyne Common Hawthorne Cratægus monogyna |
On la rencontre partout en France. La plante est tonicardiaque dans toutes ses parties. Du bois, particulièrement dur, on faisait des pièces mécaniques mobiles. Le pied sert de porte-greffe aux néfliers et aux poiriers. Common Hawthorne is commonly scattered throughout all of France. The whole of the plant is a tonic for the heart. Its wood is particularly hard and was used to fashion mechanical mobile parts. Horticulturalists use it as rootstock for medlar and pear trees.
