The serviceberry can either be in shrub or tree form. They are also well adapted to most urban environments. Ph levels and shade tolerance are species-dependent. The size and form are also species-dependent. They produce a small edible pome that is very tasty, but it is hard to beat the birds to the fruit come harvest time.
