Sorbus scalaris is variety of Rowan, or Mountain Ash, with unusual foliage; delicate looking and frond-like, that is green throughout spring and summer then turning to orange, red and purple in autumn. It is also known as the Ladder Rowan as its leaves are similar to the shape of a ladder. Typical Rowan creamy-white flowers appear in spring, followed by an autumnal foliage display of reds, oranges and yellows, before the leaves fall. Also, orange/red berries form in autumn, that are a favourite source of food for the birds. It will grow up to 5m in height by 4m in width. Its ability to thrive almost anywhere, makes it a fantastic tree for polluted or exposed sites, in a small or large garden.
