Hawthorn's latin name is Crataegus oxycanthoides. The name Crataegus comes from the Greek word - Kratos - which means strength, because of the hardness of the wood. Oxycantha is derived from the Greek - osux- meaning sharp, and - akantha - a thorn. 

Hawthorn is know in England as Maybush or whitethorn, because the shrub blooms in May producing a profusion of white blossoms. It is the flowering Hawthorn tops and the Hawthorn berries that are used by herbalists.
