I also forgot to mention that serviceberry likes acid soil. I never remember that because the soil here IS so acid, so all my plant choices are geared for this soil type.

This is an easy shrub to plant and care for. It likes full sun,water it during dry spells for the first 2 years. Fertilize it in its second year and maybe every year after that depending on soil. I have poor quality soil here so I fertilize it every year. Leaves may brown and fall off in late summer---I have the Saskatcewan variety and it drops its leaves early every year. This is a great shrub to grow because the Cedar Waxwings descend on it and stay until they`ve eaten every berry. It is very seldom you see this bird, unless you have a fruit tree that they love. The berries are very tasty and you can make wine or jam from them---if you can keep the birds out!!! Good luck.
