Amelanchiers are know as midsize shrubs to small trees with lovely white, spring flowers and copious amounts of sweet fruit. Amelanchier humilis is the smaller of the bunch, usually only reaching 3 feet tall with a tendency to spread low along the ground. This small shrub can be quite the gem in high canopy shade to nearly full sun. Birds and pollinators do tend to visit with some frequency.  However, it requires careful consideration when it comes to soils. Sandy, gravelly loam, ravines and/or sharp drained, rich soils are a must for Illinois use.
