Montana’s Forestry Division lists the lifespan of the Hawthorne tree as 30+ or 40+ years, depending on the species. It blooms in the spring with fragrant white flowers. The red fruits, or haws, are ripe in the fall and stay on the tree through the winter, providing food for birds in the winter. They are not tasty to humans.
