Description

Amelanchier canadensis

Also known as  Juneberry.

One of the first trees to bloom in early spring, these trees are covered with billowy masses of small white flowers.  Berry-like fruits are produced in summer and are edible if the birds don’t get them first.

Trivia:  Serviceberry got it’s name from the custom in days gone by of cutting the branches in winter and forcing them into bloom for Sunday church services.

Height:  25-30 feet

Zones:  3-8

 Sun to partial shade.

Landscape use: Buffer strip, shade tree.

The delicious fruits are eaten by many songbirds and mammals, so consider yourself lucky if you get to taste them before they are gone.
