Amelanchier arborea
Sun to Part Sun
Zone: 3 - 9
Height: 48"+
The pure white, blossoms dangling in the spring air, the delectable fruit, much like a blueberry only sweeter, and the brilliant crimson autumn foliage glowing against light-gray striations on silvery bark are some great reasons to plant this native. Mature height is 15 to 25'.
Amelanchier canadensis
This large shrub has erect stems that form multi-stemmed clumps. The small clusters of white flowers are followed by blue fruits that are edible and often eaten by birds. The fall color is usually yellow with red or orange. Grows up to 10’ by 6’.wide. Will also do well in moist soils.
Amelanchier laevis
Grows up to 20' tall, can be pruned into single or multiple trunked small trees, or grown as large shrubs. Covered with white flowers in the early spring before leafing out. In mid summer, edible berries turn dark purple and they make excellent desserts. Readily eaten by birds. Foliage turns yellow-orange to red-purple in fall.
Amelanchier stolinifera
Full Sun to Part Sun
Tolerates poor dry soils. White flowers in June produce sweet bluish fruit in July that are relished by birds. Good for groupings, naturalizing and massing on slopes. Grows 6’-8’ tall.
