Name: Hawthorn
Other Names: Crataegus monogyna, May, Maythorn, Quickthorn, Midland Hawthorn, Haw, Common Hawthorn, Crataegus laevigata, woodland hawthorn, mayflower
Description: Other common names of Hawthorn include May, Maythorn, Quickthorn, Haw, Crataegus laevigata, Midland Hawthorn, woodland hawthorn, mayflower. Crataegus monogyna, known as Common Hawthorn, is a species of hawthorn native to Europe, northwest Africa and western Asia. Other common names include May. Its Latin name, Crataegus, means "hardness", referring to the quality of the wood. The common name for hawthorne comes from haw, which is an old English word for "hedge." The tree's name simply means "thorny hedge." The hawthorn is native to the Mediterranean region including north Africa and all of Europe and central Asia, and now grows in many areas of North America. Common Hawthorn is extensively planted as a hedge plant, Both ancient and modern herbalists have successfully used hawthorn for its food and health benefits. Modern science shows that hawthorn contains chemical components which are sedative, anti-spasmodic and diuretic. If you intend to use it for medicinal purposes, C. laevigata, C. monogyna, or C. pinnatifida, are the hybrids known best for their medicinal uses. The hawthorn berry is one of the best cardiac tonics available, and is often used to treat high blood pressure. Hawthorne berries are used to treat childhood diabetes, taking precautions. Hawthorn flower tea is a safe diuretic. Hawthorne berries, dried and crushed and made into a decoction, eases diarrhea and dysentery, kidney inflammations and disorders. See Cautions. The young hawthorn leaves can be used as a safe, and non-nicotine tobacco substitute for those who desire to quite smoking. Enhance the flavor and help heal the throat by adding yarrow, mint, coltsfoot or mullein. Chewing the hawthorn leaf has been known for centuries as a safe way to give nourishment, revive energy, and a feeling of well-being. That is why it can be used to treat those who have problems with apprehension, insomnia and despondency. Chewing hawthorne leaves takes away that "tummy grumble" when you"re hungry. That is why the hawthorne became known as the "bread and cheese" tree, giving as much sustenance as a plate of bread and cheese.
