Amelanchier arborea - Serviceberry

Amelanchier arborea, commonly known as Serviceberry, is a versatile native tree prized for its multi-season interest. It thrives in USDA zones 4-9, reaching heights of 15 to 25 feet with a graceful, rounded canopy. Preferring well-drained, moist soils, it adapts well to full sun or partial shade. Serviceberry produces white spring blossoms followed by edible blue-black berries and vibrant fall foliage, making it ideal for naturalistic landscapes and wildlife gardens. Its moderate growth rate and tolerance to various soil types make it a reliable choice for both ornamental and ecological planting.
