Downy Serviceberry – Amelanchier arborea This small native ornamental tree is an all-season beauty that will reach a height of 15-25 feet. White, fragrant flowers appear in early spring before the leaves emerge. The flowers give way to green berries that will turn red to dark purple in early summer. The edible berries are used in jams, jellies and pies. This serviceberry will grow in a wide range of soil types, with average to well drained soils, in full to partial sun.
