The Shadblow Serviceberry, scientifically known as Amelanchier canadensis, is a lovely deciduous tree or large shrub that is native to North America. It is highly regarded for its early spring blooms, edible berries, and attractive fall foliage.
The Shadblow Serviceberry produces clusters of delicate white flowers in early spring, often before the leaves emerge. These flowers are a welcome sight after the winter months and provide a source of nectar for pollinators. Following the flowers, the tree produces small, edible berries that are often enjoyed by birds and wildlife.
This tree thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. It is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate a range of soil conditions. Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist.
