Growing & Maintenance Tips for Amelanchier alnifolia 'Obelisk'

Its upright, perfectly oval form adds height in small gardens and it will thrive in most soils that are well-drained; drought tolerant, once established. The uniform habit makes it great for hedging and the dark berries are a favourite of birds and high in vitamins and antioxidants.
