Crataegus monogyna is one of the most common species used as the "hawthorn" of traditional herbalism. The plant parts used are usually sprigs with both leaves and flowers, or alternatively the fruit ("berries"). Hawthorne has been investigated by evidence-based medicine for treating cardiac insufficiency. Crataegus monogyna is a source of antioxidant phytochemicals, especially extracts of hawthorn leaves with flowers. (Wikipedia)
