Description

A truly spectacular and easy-to-grow North American native, the Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry is a four-season tree that thrives almost anywhere in the country! The first act starts in spring with abundant showy clusters of fragrant white flowers at every stem tip on the tree. Following the bloom are edible blueberry-like fruits that start green and change from red to deep purple by summer. The delectably delicious berries can be eaten fresh and are often used for making jams, jellies and pies or dried like raisins...but you better get them quick before the birds gobble them up! With the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall, the blue-green foliage takes on absolutely astonishing shades or red and orange, hence the name. The attractive grayish brown bark often has a reddish cast in winter, providing winter interest in the garden. A must-have native in every garden where it will grow. USDA Zones 3a-9b.

The common name serviceberry refers to memorial services held in the spring at the same time as the flowers bloom. Serviceberry's fruit is used to make pies and sweetbreads and can be dried like raisins. Cherokees used serviceberry tea to aid digestion.

NOTE: 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.


Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 20 to 25 feet tall and 15 to 20 feet wide with an upright, multi-stemmed, rounded form, the Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry is ideal for use as a specimen or in groupings in the landscape or sunny to partially shaded woodland borders. Can be grown as a large shrub or lower branches removed to form an attractive small tree. Also effective along streambanks and ponds and is a fine addition to pollinator and wildlife gardens, North American native plant gardens, and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing:  25 feet for space between trees


Growing Preferences

The Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry grows best in a moist but well-drained acidic soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade.
