Amelanchier x grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance'

FamilyRosaceae

Amelanchier × grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance', also known as Autumn Brilliance serviceberry, is a highly prized North American variety, distinguished by its spectacular autumnal coloration, living up to its name. In spring, it is covered with delicate white flower clusters, followed by small edible purplish-red then black fruits, much appreciated by birds. Its bronze foliage upon emergence turns dark green, then bursts into vibrant red in autumn, providing ornamental interest across three seasons. Its naturally elegant, rounded to slightly spreading habit, and well-balanced growth make it a versatile choice for residential gardens, informal hedges, or as a specimen plant. Very hardy and low-maintenance, 'Autumn Brilliance' adapts to many soil types and integrates perfectly into Quebec's naturalistic landscapes.
