Its larger size qualifies it as a shade tree. In early spring, masses of snowy white flowers resembling apple-blossoms in 2 to 4 inch racemes almost cover the tree. Following the flowers are edible, sweet, blueberry-like green fruits that turn to red and purple as they ripen. Leaves emerge purple in spring turning to a rich green with fall bringing brilliant golden, orange and red shades. The silver striped ridged and furrowed handsome bark provides winter interest in the landscape. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eServiceberry fruit is used to make pies and sweetbreads and can be dried like raisins. The Cherokees used serviceberry tea to aid digestion, and children who had worms were given baths in serviceberry tea. Native Americans used the tree's straight wood to make arrow shafts. Francois Michaux wrote of serviceberries being available in Philadelphia markets, but only children bought them because they were so sweet and delicious.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/span\u003e As with all of our other plants and trees, all of our fruit plants are grown in containers outdoors so they are fully rooted and landscape-ready upon arrival.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 15 to 25 feet tall and 15 to 20 feet wide, the Allegheny Serviceberry can be left alone to grow naturally as a large  shrub or lower branches can be removed to form a multi or single trunk specimen tree.
