They bloom in May with showy, slightly fragrant white sprays of dainty flowers that attract pollinators by offering nectar and pollen rewards for their services. Very ornamental pinkish-red berry-like fruits form in dangling clusters and ripen to a rich purple color by June. That is when the birds attack! They adore the fruits of Serviceberries and will strip it clean in a very short time. Humans can also eat the berries which are sweet and floral tasting, similar to blueberries, and they can be used to replace other berries in most recipes. However, tastier berries for human consumption are produced by Amelanchier laevis, a closely related species that sometimes naturally hybridizes with Amelanchier arborea in the wild, resulting in Amelanchier x grandiflora (Apple Serviceberry.)\u003cbr\u003eServiceberries are very ornamental and commonly used in the landscape. They prefer a moist, well-drained and acidic soil but are adaptable and easy to please. These trees tolerate clay soil but are not reliable in stressful environments where they experience drought and blazing hot sun and wind. Amelanchier arborea can be maintained as a small, single-trunk tree but the roots do tend to sucker. If the suckers are not removed, the effect will be an attractive multitrunked tree. The foliage and overall growth habit is soft and airy, and the fall colors are brilliant golden yellow, orange and red.\u003cbr\u003eBesides their beauty, Amelanchier spp. have excellent wildlife value. Along with the incredible bounty of fruit and nectar that Serviceberries provide, they are also host to at least 92 species of Lepidoptera, including the Red-spotted Purple and the Striped Hairstreak.\u003cbr\u003eSources:\u003cbr\u003eNative Trees, Shrubs, \u0026amp; Vines by William Cullina\u003cbr\u003eManual of Woody Landscape Plants by Michael A.

Though this may occur, it is highly recommended to plant more than one tree for best fruit production. It takes about 5-7 years from seed for the trees to begin fruiting. The fruit will drop from the trees late in the year once it is ready and will be soft to the touch.

Humans can also eat the berries which are sweet and floral tasting, similar to blueberries, and they can be used to replace other berries in most recipes.

For two weeks in late spring the trees are covered in showy, upright, white flower clusters that attract Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds, bumblebees and moths as their primary pollinators. Many other insects visit the blooms for nectar, as well as the extra-floral nectaries on the leaves. These function as a part of the tree’s defenses against herbivory by attracting insects such as lady beetles, ants and parasitoid wasps to protect it. Northern Catalpas are host to only 8 species of Lepidoptera, including the Catalpa Sphinx Moth, which have been harvested and used by fisherfolk as bait.\u003cbr\u003eIn the landscape, Northern Catalpas are useful for difficult areas of seasonal changes in soil moisture, areas with urban air pollution, deer pressure, or near Black Walnuts and they possess a modest degree of salt tolerance. The wood is relatively brittle and should not be located over structures or parking areas, and the cylindrical seed pods can be quite messy in the fall when they are shed from the tree. It is easier to appreciate the beauty and boldness of these trees if they are well-sited, away from areas that their messy tendencies in fall will be noticed. Their winter habit is also very attractive with a dense and chunky looking branching structure.\u003cbr\u003eThere is a non-native, highly invasive look-alike referred to as Princess Tree, Empress Tree, or Royal Paulownia (Paulownia tomentosa) which is native to China and was imported in the late 1800s as an ornamental.
