The Georgia Red mayhaw tree is a late maturing producer, the mayhaw berries ripening during the last week of May or the first week of April in South Georgia. The flowers of this seedling grown tree are fragrant and are perfect pollinators for most other mayhaws. These mayhaw trees grow rapidly to maturity at a height of 15 feet, and the berries don't normally drop to the ground until soft after the mayhaw berries have changed to a bright red color.• Mayhaw orchardists have realized over the years that mayhaw trees can be grown on upland ridges and do not require a wet site to produce. A bowl of Georgia Red mayhaws are fully ripe during the middle days of May and ready to bake or boil down into delicious mayhaw jelly. The Georgia Red Mayhaw tree stands out in the landscape, showing up brightly in the sunlight as it reflects off the beautiful red mayhaw fruit. The 'Georgia Red' Mayhaw is as large as a small plum and bright red in color. The mayhaw berry has the appearance of a miniture apple or crabapple, but the delicate flavor when cooked is unmatched. The fragrance of the Georgia Red Mayhaw berry is fruity as it begins its ripening process in early Spring.
