Sorbus domestica, commonly known as the Service Tree or True Service Tree, is a deciduous tree that can add ornamental value to domestic gardens and open spaces.
It typically grows to a height of 10-15 meters, with a rounded crown and attractive foliage.
The leaves are pinnate, with serrated edges, and turn vibrant shades of orange, red, and yellow in the autumn, providing a stunning display.
The tree also produces clusters of creamy white flowers in spring, followed by small, brownish-red fruits that resemble small apples.
These fruits are edible when fully ripe and are often used in jams, jellies, and alcoholic beverages.
