Amelanchier alnifolia 'Obelisk'
Amelanchier alnifolia 'Obelisk', or 'Obelisk' Saskatoon Berry, is a selection with a narrow, columnar habit, ideal for confined spaces or vertical fruit hedges. It retains all the classic beauty of the serviceberry with its white spring flowers, followed by sweet purplish-blue berries, while offering a slender, structural silhouette. Its dark green foliage forms a dense screen that turns yellow and orange in the fall, adding seasonal interest to the garden. It attracts birds and pollinators and is well-suited to modern or naturalistic landscaping. 'Obelisk' combines edible fruit, vertical aesthetics, and a small footprint, making it a wise choice for in-line edible hedges or close-row plantings.
