Allegheny Serviceberry (Amelanchier laevis)
A low maintenance, small deciduous tree or large shrub native to Eastern North America. It's known for its adaptability to a range of soil types, thriving in both full sun and partial shade. This makes it versatile for USDA zones 4 to 9.
Typically growing to 15-25 feet tall, the Allegheny Serviceberry forms a rounded, open crown. It features showy, white flowers in early spring, followed by sweet, edible berries in summer that attract birds and humans. Native serviceberry species are especially important for native bees and butterflies, as they are among the first plants to emerge and provide the pollen and nectar that are needed early in the season.
The leaves are elliptical and turn a striking orange-red in autumn, adding seasonal interest. This tree is often used in naturalized or woodland gardens, as a specimen plant, or in mass plantings for its ornamental qualities.

Plants ship with leaves in spring and summer and are sent dormant throughout fall and winter. They are currently 30-40" tall and will be pruned to fit into a 36" box and to promote branching.
For best growth, plant in well-drained soil and provide regular watering, especially in dry conditions.
