Product Description
Amelanchier lamarckii is a versatile small tree or large shrub with a naturally bushy, spreading habit. In spring, its branches are covered with clouds of starry white flowers that appear as the young leaves unfold, creating a soft and elegant display.
The emerging foliage is coppery red and silky, maturing to fresh green before transforming into rich shades of orange and red in autumn. After flowering, small black edible berries develop, providing an important food source for birds and other wildlife.
Best grown in moist, well-drained, acidic soil, this Juneberry performs particularly well in full sun for the strongest autumn colour, though it also tolerates partial shade. It is a reliable, easy-going plant suited to a wide range of garden styles.
