Allegheny serviceberry is a graceful native understory tree or large shrub that offers four-season interest with early spring white blossoms, edible berries, and brilliant fall color. It grows well in average, moist, well-drained soils and tolerates partial shade, making it ideal for woodland garden edges. Once established, it requires very little maintenance and is an excellent wildlife plant.
