Sorbus aucuparia, commonly called rowan and mountain-ash, is a species of deciduous tree that is native to most of Europe and parts of Asia, as well as northern Africa.
Mountain Ash blossoms from May to June, small yellowish white flowers, and develops small red pomes as fruit that ripen from August to October and are eaten by many bird species. The plant is undemanding and frost hardy. It is a small tree or shrub that grows up to between about 5 and 15 metres (16 and 49 feet) in height.

Its berries are round pomes between 8 and 10 mm (5⁄16 and 3⁄8 in) in diameter that ripen from August to October. The fruit are green before they ripen and then typically turn to orange or scarlet in color.

Seeds per pack: 10

Germination: Start these seeds right away to preserve viability, no matter the time of year. These seeds require a period of cold, warm and cold again to initiate germination. Sow the seeds just under the surface of a sterile seed-start mix, and water in. Cover, and then place the in a fridge for 150 days. Keep them lightly moist during this time. Then bring them to warmth for 4-6 weeks. They will not grow yet. Then return them to cold for 14-16 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. Germination is in 14-60 days after the final warming period, possibly 2-4 months. Another option is to plant them outdoors in fall, however they will likely need 2 winters before they will germinate, so the fridge method is a little more efficient.
