‘Autumn Brilliance’ Serviceberry, Melanchier x Grandiflora, is typically in bloom in mid-April. Depending upon the weather, we should be able to enjoy the wonderful allee of these trees in Court 26 on the Medford Campus this week. This is a deciduous early-flowering small tree which grows to about 15-25’ in height. It features showy white flowers which appear before the leaves emerge. The flowers give way to small round berries, which turn red and mature to a dark purplish color in early summer.
The blue sky gives us a hint of spring to come.
