  • SIMPLE LEAVES WITH TEETH ON MARGINS SOUTHERN CRAB APPLE SERVICEBERRY AMERICAN PLUM HAWTHORN MOUNTAIN WINTERBERRY CAROLINA BUCKTHORN SOUTHERN CRAB APPLE is a small tree, closely related to the cultivated apple. The leaves are dark green above and lighter below, and the fragrant blossoms are rose-colored. The fruit is seldom more than an inch in diameter, and pale yellow when ripe. This species is rare in the Park, and is seldom found above 1,800 feet. AMERICAN PLUM leaves are twice the size of those of the crab apple, and the leaf margins are less jagged. The flowers are white to pink, and the fruit ripens from green to orange and red. The plum has one stone, where crab apple has several seeds. Plum bark is gray-brown and smooth on young trees, darker and in vertical strips when older. A fairly common small tree, often with several trunks, in thickets below 3,850 feet. SERVICEBERRY leaves are green when fully grown, but are a dark reddish brown from unfolding until about half grown. The white blossoms are among the earliest to appear in the spring. The reddish hue of the leaves and the white of the blossoms combine to give the trees a rosy hue. The fruit, in July, is purplish and sweet. The tree is found throughout the Park, though it is most common at high altitudes. Another species, the downy service- berry, grows along the borders of the Park; its leaves are slightly more pointed, and the fruit is tasteless. 22
