Sorbus scopulina, also known as Greene's mountain-ash, is a North American species of rowan within the rose family.
It is a shrub or small tree growing up to 5 metres (16 feet) tall.
[4] The common name of the species honors American botanist Edward Lee Greene.
[6] It is native to western North America, primarily in the Rocky Mountains.
[7] Despite their resemblance to poisonous baneberries,[3] the edible fruits[2] were used by Native Americans and early settlers, being cooked and made into jelly.
