Every Blooming Thing

Amelanchier canadensis

AKA Shadbush or Serviceberry. Its flowers are a signal that the shad are running up the rivers and the ground is thawed enough to commence with burial services. Its fruit is an important food source for birds. Planting one is known as being “better than a bird feeder”.

Happy Easter NYSB!
