Zone: 4ALLEGHENY SERVICEBERRY
The Allegheny Serviceberry (Amelanchier laevis) is a beautiful, small tree/shrub that is native to the open woodland areas in Eastern North America. It is noteworthy for its showy, 5-petaled, fragrant white flower clusters that appear in April. Green leaves emerge with edible purplish-black berries that are enjoyed by birds and people. Berries are used in jams, jellies and pies. Dark green foliage turns a fantastic reddish-orange in fall. Striking smooth, gray bark adds to its winter interest. This easy to grow, 4-season selection thrives in full to part sun in evenly moist, well-drained soils.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining, slightly acidic soil enriched with organic matter to ensure vigorous development. Select a site with full sun to partial shade, as this balance promotes the best floral display and seasonal foliage color. Provide regular water during the first few growing seasons until fully established, especially during extended dry periods. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or crossing branches, though minimal shaping is typically required for these naturally graceful specimens.
