ALLEGHENY SERVICEBERRY,  Amelanchier laevis, (Growth rate- medium)

A native shrub, Allegheny serviceberry is a multiple-trunked tree or large shrub with smooth gray bark that reaches 15-30 feet tall. In the spring, white flowers appear before the leaves open providing early season nourishment for pollinators. The short but showy bloom period is followed by summer berries then fall foliage that ranges from golden-orange to red. Prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soils. Allegheny Serviceberry is a host plant for the Easter Tiger Swallowtail butterfly and is a favorite source of berries for birds.
