Amelanchier alnifolia 'Obelisk' Spring purple-pink to red slightly fragrantAn upright, elegant tree with round, alder like leaves that unfold red tinted, turn dark green in summer and then marvelous red and orange in autumn. The flowers sit in upright racemes, but with shorter floral stalks than other June berries creating a cluster like flowering. A very versatile and unproblematic tree for smaller spaces. Very hardy.
