A small native tree with showy, white, pendulous flowers in the early spring.  Purple edible berries form in June which birds and people love. Berries can be used to make jam. Amelanchier laevis is distinguished from other varieties by hairless foliage and purple-tinged new growth. Yellow to orange to red foliage in the fall.

Alleghany serviceberry is a slow to moderate grower with the most upright, tree-like habit of all the Amelanchier species. It can be grown single-stem or multi-stem and used as a small shade tree, street tree, in a woodland setting, or used as a shrub in borders and hedges.
