Also called Shadbush and Juneberry, this shrub-like, perennial tree is relatively small, blooming white flowers and red, apple-like fruits in June. Like all native species of Amelanchier, this plant is popular with fruit-eating birds. It grows 6 to 20 feet tall in moist, well-drained soils, and in full sun to partial shade.
