Large-flowered Serviceberry
FamilyRosaceae
Amelanchier × grandiflora, also known as hybrid serviceberry or large-flowered serviceberry, is a small ornamental tree with spectacular blossoms, resulting from the cross between two North American species. Highly valued for its abundant spring flowering with clusters of starry white flowers, it offers remarkable ornamental interest over three seasons. Its foliage, bronze when budding, turns dark green in summer, then blazes in orange-yellow to vivid red in autumn. It also produces small edible purplish-black berries, highly prized by birds. Its naturally rounded and light habit, high hardiness, and good tolerance to urban conditions make it a versatile choice for residential gardens, informal hedges, or as a specimen plant. The hybrid serviceberry is a sure bet for combining beauty, biodiversity, and edibility, even in harsh climates.
