Apple Serviceberry 'Autumn Brilliance'

Serviceberry trees and a few shrubs of this genus are wonderful ornamentals with dainty white flowers in early spring, smooth gray bark, ...Read Moregreat golden to red fall color, and delicious berries to eat in June, that the birds also relish. Tasting in a lot like cherry with some blueberry. Informal and sort of arching, neat, clean habit. Grows about 1.5 ft/yr and should live about 100 to 150 yrs. Grow in most any well-drained soil that is acid or slightly alkaline, pH 5 to 7.5. I have two Autumn Brilliance in my backyard of se PA that I bought as 10 ft high B&B trees in 2002 and they have been full-grown in size since 2008. This is probably the most common cultivar offered in the East and Midwest.
