+'''''Sorbus decora''''', commonly known as the '''showy mountain-ash''' or "dogberry" is a [[deciduous]] shrub or very small tree native to northeastern [[North America]].  It occurs throughout the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Mixedwood forest region, the [[New England-Acadian forest]] region, and the eastern [[Boreal forest of Canada|Canadian boreal forests]].
-| name = ''LATINNAME''   <!--- replace LATINNAME with the actual latin name -->
-| common_names =     <!--- if multiple, list all, if none, leave blank -->
+Showy mountain-ash is very similar to the closely related American mountain-ash.  Like the [[American mountain-ash]] (''Sorbus Americana''), the showy mountain-ash has [[pinnately compound leaves]] and often large clusters of flowers and fruits.  However, a useful distinguishing feature of this species is its shiny, sticky buds <ref>Farrar, J.L. (1995). Trees in Canada. Markham, Ontario: Fitzhenry and Whitside/Canadian Forest Service.</ref>.
-| growth_habit = ?   <!--- tree, shrub, herbaceous, vine, etc -->
-| high = ?   <!--- 1m (3 ft) -->
+It is often cultivated as an [[ornamental plant]] for its cold-hardiness, its attractive flowers, and its large clusters of small red berry-like [[pome]]s.
-| wide =     <!--- 65cm (25 inches) -->
-| origin = ?   <!--- Mexico, S America, S Europe, garden, etc -->
+The fruits are an important source of food for wildlife, particularly birds in the winter and early spring.
