Amelanchier canadensis 'Rainbow Pillar'®
Amelanchier 'Rainbow Pillar' is a low-maintenance, versatile shrub or small tree that offers interest across all seasons, making it a great choice for UK gardens, whether planted as part of a mixed border, woodland, or urban setting. Its narrow, upright form and tolerance to different soil types make it especially useful for smaller gardens or confined spaces.
New leaves appear with a bronze or reddish tint before turning lush green for the summer season. In autumn the foliage produces striking shades of red, orange, and yellow, offering brilliant seasonal colour.
In early spring (March to April), clusters of star-shaped, white blossoms appear before the leaves, offering early-season interest. The flowers attract pollinators like bees and other beneficial insects, which is essential in wildlife-friendly UK gardens.
After flowering, the plant produces small, purplish-black berries in early summer (June to July). These edible fruits can be used in jams and jellies or left to attract wildlife, especially birds like blackbirds and thrushes.
