Amelanchier alnifolia 
15 seeds
 "Saskatoon Serviceberry"
Saskatoon Serviceberry each year announce their presence in the early spring time when the slender pinkish buds turn to 1 inch white flowers blooming so profusely that the branches are obscured by their feathery petals. The blooms are reminiscent of the witch hazel. Deciduous, ranging in height to 15 feet (5m) and up to 20 feet wide, the Saskatoon Serviceberry begins its annual growth cycle with these flowers even before the leaves sprout in their shades of silver or red which turn to green.
The leaves are downy when they are young and similar to those of cherry cultivars. The mature leaf color is dark green or even a slightly blue tint on top, not glossy, and pale on the underside. They are thicker and more firm in texture than the cherry leaves.
The plentiful red-purple fruit are sweet and juicy, soft in texture and often said to be similar in taste to apples. This is quite natural, as they are a member of the apple family. The fruits are about 1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter with 2 to 5 very small seeds in the pear or apple like core. They resemble high bush blueberries in size and shape, but they are not related to the blueberry.
