This perennial, deciduous, shrub-like tree is also known as Shadbush, Juneberry, Junebush, and Shadblow. It grows 15 to 25 feet tall in full to sun to shade, and in moist, well-drained soils. In June, Downy Service-Berry bears white spring flowers, followed by sweet, reddish-purple berries that are popular with fruit-eating birds, as are all native species of Amelanchier.
