Wind sculpted hawthorn tree (Crataegus monogyna). When a tree grows in an exposed position where the prevailing wind is regularly in the same direction it can strongly influence its growth and shape. This hawthorn in Cuckmere Valley, East Sussex, UK, is regularly swept by strong winds off the sea and it grows leaning away from the wind direction. | |
