Hawthorn
Chapter 11
Crataegus monogyna
Known as "Common" or "Single-Seed"
According to the Celtic tree calender, the month of Hawthorn is from May 13 to June 9.
The oldest known Hawthorn in East Anglia and (possibly) the United Kingdom is known as the Hethel Old Thorn. It is reputed to have been planted in the 13th Century.
Hawthorn wands are a paradox. They are suited to healing magic as well as extremely skilled in curses. They work best with the wielder in a state of turmoil or confusion.
The smell of a Hawthorn branch is the exact same smell of decaying animal tissue.
