First Editions® Standing Ovation™ Serviceberry
Amelanchier alnifolia ‘Obelisk’
With three-season interest, this serviceberry deserves a “standing ovation”. Dark green, almost circular leaves change to red and orange in autumn. Stems are covered in white flowers each spring, sometimes turning into edible berries in June. Its upright, perfectly oval form is attractive even during winter. In small gardens, it will add height and all season interest. Because of the uniformity of habit, it makes a terrific hedge.
