Autumn Brilliance® Serviceberry
Autumn Brilliance® Serviceberry is one of the classiest trees in the "edible ornamental" category. The smooth, gray bark elegantly holds aloft the healthy green leaves and the fleecy white flowers, then the ensuing tasty berries, and finally the bright red autumnal display. The delicious red berries are extremely fun thanks to their showy red-turning-blue display and for the sport of out-competing the birds to eat them. The fruits cause no mess because they never come close to hitting the ground (eaten before). If you like food and if you like birds even more, you will consider this the premier edible ornamental tree. The foliage on this cultivar is clean and leaf-spot resistant.
