Looking for a beautiful and practical addition to your garden? Consider Amelanchier ovalis, also known as Snowy Mespilus. This deciduous shrub, which grows up to 15 ft, produces edible pome fruits that can be eaten raw or cooked. It also features showy white flowers in spring and turns to shades of red, orange, and yellow in the autumn. With a clear stem, the 4-5ft (120-150cm) plant is suitable for growing as a tree. It is also perfect for a hedge, growing 4-6ft (120-180cm) and needing to be trimmed after flowering. Hardy to zone 5 and not frost tender, Amelanchier ovalis prefers moist soil and can thrive in any soil that is not too dry or water-logged. Its wood is fine-grained, hard, and very heavy, making it perfect for small articles. Overall, this ornamental plant is a great option for those looking for both beauty and practicality in their garden.
