Pink Pagoda

Sorbus hupehensis

Pink Pagoda is a selection of the Hupeh or Hubei rowan, from China.

The very long-lasting fruitlets are undoubtedly the key attraction of Pink Pagoda. They appear in late summer, and are initially a summery light pink colour, gradually lightening during the autumn months until they are white by the time winter arrives.

In autumn the grey-green leaves take on autumn hues.
