Sorbus aria Majestica - Whitebeam Possibly the finest cultivar of the native (or long-established) whitebeam, Sorbus aria Majestica is a medium-sized, deciduous tree, with an upright habit when young, and a rounder shape as it matures. The oval leaves are the largest of the whitebeams’, glossy deep green above and whitish underneath, giving a lovely light effect in a breeze; they turn yellow in autumn. Clusters of creamy-white flowers are borne in late spring, followed by orange-red berries, larger than those of most whitebeams at 12mm. Whitebeam Majestica holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit and is a good source of nectar for pollinators and berries for birds.
