Winter Interest
Apple serviceberry is a small tree or large-multi-stemmed shrub with white or pink flowers that appear in spring, before the young purple leaves appear. The flowers are larger than on other serviceberries. The leaves turn green as they mature, then become orange in autumn. During the summer, its red berries attract birds. Silvery-gray bark gives winter interest.
Planting
Plant balled-and-burlapped or container-grown plants in partial shade in moist, well-drained soil.
