Amelanchier lamarckii, commonly known as Juneberry or Snowy Mespilus, is a graceful, multi-seasonal ornamental tree that offers year-round appeal with its stunning combination of delicate white blossoms, edible summer berries, and vibrant autumn foliage. In early spring, the tree is adorned with clusters of snow-white flowers, which are followed by small, sweet, purple-black berries in the summer - perfect for both humans and wildlife. As autumn approaches, the tree’s leaves turn striking shades of red, orange, and yellow, adding rich colour to the garden. Known for its wildlife-friendly benefits, Amelanchier lamarckii provides food and shelter for birds, pollinators, and other creatures. Whether used in casual gardens or professional landscape projects, its elegant structure and seasonal beauty make it an ideal choice for those looking to enhance their outdoor spaces with a tree that offers charm and practicality throughout the year.
