Top Tip
Prune Amelanchier trees in late winter or early spring to remove dead or overcrowded branches and shape the canopy. This encourages better air circulation and healthier growth. Their multi-seasonal appeal makes them a stunning focal point, with spring flowers, summer berries, and vibrant autumn foliage. For an added splash of seasonal colour, plant in a location that allows sunlight to highlight the changing leaves.
How to Water
Water Amelanchier trees deeply after planting and consistently during their first year to help the roots establish. Mature trees are drought-tolerant but benefit from regular watering during prolonged dry spells to maintain healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Ensure the soil remains moist but not waterlogged, as excessive wetness can lead to root rot. Using rainwater is ideal, as it avoids raising soil alkalinity.
How to Plant
To plant an Amelanchier tree, choose a sunny or partially shaded spot with moist, well-draining, acidic to neutral soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and slightly shallower than its height to ensure the roots are just below the surface. Loosen the soil at the base, soak the root ball in water, and position the tree upright. Fill in the hole, firm the soil gently, and water thoroughly. Apply a layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping it away from the trunk.
