🌳Tree of the Week: Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry🌳
Meet one of the best all-around native trees you can plant in Zone 4! Autumn Brilliance (Amelanchier x grandiflora) earns its keep in every season:
🌸 Spring – Clouds of delicate white blooms, some of the earliest flowers of the season
🫐 Summer – Sweet, edible purple-blue berries that pollinators AND birds go crazy for (get them before the robins do!)
🍁 Fall – Show-stopping orange-red foliage that lives up to its name
🌿 Winter – Attractive smooth gray bark adds structure to the winter landscape
Why we love it:
✅ Native to our region — supports local pollinators & wildlife
✅ Tough as nails in Zone 4 winters
✅ Adaptable to sun or part shade, and a range of soil types
✅ Multi-stem or single-trunk options for any landscape style
✅ Low-maintenance once established
Whether you're planting for beauty, birds, or berries — this one does it all. Stop in and grab yours this week! 🍂
