Also known as Juneberry, Snowy Mespilus, or Serviceberry, the Amelanchier lamarckii in multi-stem form offers a graceful, naturalistic silhouette and multi-season beauty. With its delicate blossom, rich autumn foliage, and wildlife-friendly berries, it’s a top choice for gardens seeking softness, subtlety, and structure.
At Tree Heritage Nursery, our Amelanchier Multi-Stem Trees are selected for their balanced form and ornamental value - ideal for focal points, layered borders, or more naturalistic planting styles.
Growing Conditions
Amelanchier thrives in moist but well-drained soil, including loam, clay, or sandy types, and performs best in acidic to neutral conditions. It grows well in both full sun and light shade, and is well-suited to small gardens due to its compact and refined habit.
Where to Position It
This elegant multi-stem tree is perfect for woodland-style planting, small lawns, urban courtyards, or wildlife-friendly schemes. It pairs beautifully with spring bulbs and light underplanting, and its upright form makes it suitable even in limited spaces.
Flowers, Foliage & Fruit
In early spring, Amelanchier bursts into life with masses of star-shaped white flowers, set against coppery young foliage. These are followed by small, dark red to purple berries that are edible and loved by birds. In autumn, its leaves turn vivid shades of orange, red, and gold, providing a fiery seasonal finale before leaf fall.
