Amelanchier x grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance' is a hybrid serviceberry cultivar that grows as a large shrub or small tree, typically up to 15-20' tall. This serviceberry cultivar, also called autumn brilliance serviceberry or apple serviceberry, is easily grown in average, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade, and though it is tolerant of a somewhat wide range of soils, it prefers moist, well-drained loams.

Amelanchier x grandiflora is a natural occuring hybrid cultivar of two native serviceberry species, Amelanchier laevis (native to Maryland) and Amelanchier arborea (native to Maryland and the Eastern Shore), which has resulted in larger, more profuse white flowers in the spring than either of the parent species, and therefore better fruit set during the summer months as well. The 'Autumn Brilliance' cultivar adds further seasonal interest with its striking fall foliage, in varying shades of orange and purple-tinted reds. Flowers, fruit, and leaves add ornamental, ecological, and edible interest through multiple seasons, as pollinators are attracted to flowers, birds and small mammals are attracted to edible fruit (which can also be used in pies and jams), and fall colors are sure to 'wow!'

Marylanders Plant Trees

From the Maryland Department of Natural Resources:

"We launched Marylanders Plant Trees in 2009 to encourage citizens and organizations to partner with the State to plant new trees. Today, citizens can still take advantage of our coupon program to receive $25 off the purchase of a native tree at 86 participating nurseries across the State. The State cost of $20 per coupon is funded through a settlement from a major power generator for Clean Air Act violations, in partnership with the Office of the Attorney General, and Maryland’s participating tree vendors are generously absorbing the remaining $5.

Trees must be planted in the state of Maryland to qualify for $25 off coupon.
Wholesale customers do not qualify.
