Removed dead link to Photos of Irish haw berries
Needs mention as an invasive species. Sprouts from underground runners, forms thickets.-- Jerzy• t 19:05, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
I think it's a hardwood but does anyone know for sure? AllanHainey 21:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
The Google hit for Hawthorne is only Nathanial, because this page is hidden under a name known to vanishingly few english speakers. 99% or more will find it more easily under the English name. Hence it will serve as a useful reference if re-named, and Latin given as a parenthetical rather than the other way around.
Anyone who knows it by the Latin name will also be able to find it if the English is used.
There is a better Hawthorn Blossom image available, which may be of use to the originator. Regards, 213.122.28.163 ( talk) 12:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

I've removed the following material
The seeds of the Hawthorn berries are poisonous. [1]
because although it is true that the seeds are poisonous (like the seeds of other Rosaceae, apples, peaches, bitter almonds, etc.), they are encased in a hard shell, the pyrene, and it would require a lot of work to extract them if you wanted to eat them. Boiling them with the fruit to make jelly is fine. Baking them in a pie as described at the link is a bit hard to believe, it would be rather like leaving the peach pits in a peach pie (though they are bigger).

The section with the term "by evidence-based medicine..." is meaningless jargon. If there is evidence, cite it.
The passage starting "In Celtic Folklore..." it states that Celts used Hawthorn as well as Yew and Apple trees to inscribe runes. This is erroneous as they had no Runes. They had the writing system, Ogham, which they did use to inscribe upon wood as well as stone but Runes are used specifically by Germanic tribes. This lack of distinction creates a lot of Academic confusion as there are Runes in Celtic Britain on wood and stone left by Scandinavians. I will remove the word runes but I wanted to put my reasoning here. -R — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.87.170.164 ( talk) 13:31, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Above is interesting. It says that the hawthorn population in North America has dropped drastically since the early-mid 20th century, and then suggests that there was an unnatural boom due to European colonization of North America in the earlier few centuries, clearing a lot of forest into pasture and enlarging the ecological niche of hawthorns. So they propagated and speciated unusually fast for a while. Article also discusses their speciation and genetics. Maybe it's usable directly or maybe it can help chase down scientific sources, but if the info is valid it should go in the article. 2601:644:8501:AAF0:0:0:0:9BB0 ( talk) 00:51, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
