Amelanchier arborea, commonly known as the downy serviceberry or Juneberry, is a small deciduous tree or large multi-stemmed shrub native to eastern North America. It typically grows up to 20-25 feet tall with a spread of 15-20 feet. The tree has a rounded crown with a dense, twiggy habit and attractive white flowers that bloom in early spring, followed by edible blue-black berries that ripen in early summer.
