Whitebeam
The whitebeams are members of the family Rosaceae, tribe Malinae, comprising a number of deciduous simple or lobe-leaved species formerly lumped together within ''Sorbus'' s.l. Many whitebeams are the result of extensive intergeneric hybridisation involving the genera ''Sorbus'' (''Sorbus aucuparia'' in particular), ''Aria'', '' Torminalis'' and ''Chamaemespilus''. As an effect, they are commonly apomicts (reproducing solely asexually) and many have very restricted ranges. The best known species is the common whitebeam ('' Aria edulis''), a columnar tree which grows to tall by broad, with clusters of white flowers in spring followed by speckled red berries in autumn (fall). Appearance In many species, the surface of the leaves is an unremarkable mid-green, but the underside is pale to almost white (hence the name) with pale grey or white hairs, transforming the appearance of the tree in strong winds, as noted by the poet Meredith: "flashing as in gusts the sudden-lighted wh ...

Pome
In botany, a pome is a type of fruit produced by flowering plants in the subtribe Malinae of the family Rosaceae. Pome fruits consist of a central "core" containing multiple small seeds, which is enveloped by a tough membrane and surrounded by an edible layer of flesh. Pome fruit trees are deciduous, and undergo a dormant winter period that requires cold temperatures to break dormancy in spring. Well-known pomes include the apple, pear, and quince. Etymology The word ''pome'' entered English in the late 14th century, and referred to an apple or an apple-shaped object. It derived from the Old French word for "apple": (12th century; modern French is ), which in turn derived from the Late Latin or Vulgar Latin word "apple", originally the plural of Latin "fruit", later "apple". Morphology A pome is an accessory fruit composed of one or more Gynoecium, carpels surrounded by accessory tissue. The accessory tissue is interpreted by some specialists as an extension of the rece ...

Hedlundia
''Hedlundia'' is a genus of plants in the rose family (biology), family (of Rosaceae). They are shrubs or small trees that have a Hybrid (biology), hybrid origin involving crosses between ''Whitebeam, Aria'' and ''Sorbus'' sensu stricto. There are about 48 species are distributed across central, western and southern Europe, Scandinavia, Turkey, the Caucasus, Crimea, and also central Asia. The term ''Hedlundia'' was published in 2017. Description ''Hedlundia'' species are small trees or shrubs, with simple leaves, pinnatilobate (having lobes arranged in a pinnate manner) or basally Pinnation, pinnate with 1–2(–3) leaflets. They are white- or greenish-grey-tomentose (covered with dense, matted, woolly hairs) beneath, with 7–15 pairs of lateral veins, with small to prominent, long, sub-acute to obtuse lobes with a variable number of teeth. They have flowers with white petals and 2–3 Gynoecium, styles. The fruit is medium-sized, orange-red to crimson in colour, with few to sp ...
