Amelanchier trees - also known as ‘Juneberry’, ‘serviceberry’ or ‘snowy mespilus’ - are striking trees that are prized for their pretty spring flowers and autumn foliage. These delightful trees hold the desirable trait of being suitable for the smaller garden as well as holding several seasons of changing interest. In spring, white or pink star-shaped flowers appear all over the tree and they are surrounded by coppery young leaves; by summer, the flowers have transformed into fruits and these are popular with wildlife. In autumn, the leaves put on a show again and burst to life with bright and vibrant shades of orange and red.
Amelanchier trees do well in most fertile soil types, but will do particularly well in slightly more acidic soil and in a sunny position.

Amelanchier lamarckii
June Berry Tree
Amelanchier lamarkii, or June Berry tree, is a hardy garden tree which features snow-white flowers and bronzed leaves, with a good autumn colour. This graceful Amelanchier offers changing interest and it would be a welcome addition to any garden. In spring, young foliage shoots through and the leaves are a coppery red colour when young. The leaves are soon accompanied by a stunning shower of star-shaped flowers, which appear in abundance all over the tree. The flowers have five pure white petals and the protruding yellow stamens are the centerpiece of the pretty flowers. Come summer, the leaves mature to a deeper green colour and the purple-black berries appear in June. The clusters of glossy berries make a great natural bird feeder, but they are also edible for humans and they taste like blueberries. The berries can be enjoyed straight from the tree, or they can be cooked up as a jam. Autumn sees the final burst of colour from the foliage: the leaves put on a spectacular show of warm red and bronzed orange before falling. The 'lamarkii' is a hardy tree which makes an ideal lawn specimen: it grows to have a broadly vase-shaped habit and is relatively small when mature, making it suitable for a range of gardens. A deservedly popular tree that works well with a range of other trees: in particular, the Amelanchier Ballerina sits well against this tree as the two are remarkably similar, but the Ballerina has a slightly different habit as the branches arch over a little more.
