Sorbus Cashmiriana (Rowan Kashmir)

World'd most beautifull & Expensive Ornamental Tree
Sorbus Cashmiriana (Pride of Kashmir) 


(A remarkable and striking little ornamental/medicinal tree  that won the RHS Award of Merit in 2002.)

God has gifted Kashmir  with enormous varieties of medicinal plants. Out of these only 20% have so far been evaluated for their therapeutic potentials. Therefore, there is a need of coordinated and well-organized efforts in the area of chemistry of indigenous medicinal plants.

Sorbus cashmiriana is a small growing tree perfect for gardens. This stunning trees is small growing with plenty of interest all year round, making it a perfect candidate for Gardens!

Sorbus cashmiriana has soft pink flowers that are borne in Spring, followed by the classic fearn like leaflets displayed by Rowans.

The highlight of the year is in the autumn when the large white fruits are displayed, up to 12mm across, hanging in clusters from the tree.  The fruits are shiny and white, resembling marbles and remain on the tree long after the leaves have disappeared, often well into December.
