Notes

Very tough on almost all sites but is short lived and prone to failure during heavy snow events. Rarely produces fruit in Colorado so it doesn't pose the same invasive species risk. Has been planted extensively and should only be used in limited quantities in new plans. Susceptible to fireblight.
