Burning Bush
Autumn Brilliance Saskatoon (Serviceberry)

Burning Bush is a unique shrub whose leaves turn firey red in the fall. You can plant it in rows to make a hedge or on its own. Burning Bush requires little maintenance and thrives in just about any kind of soil, which makes it a good choice for inexperienced growers. Plant it in full sun to get its best fall color.

Select Cultivar: Dwarf Burning Bush is a smaller variety of Burning Bush. This shrub has a compact form and only reaches 4-5ft tall and 4-5ft wide.

Note: Burning Bush is considered an invasive species in eastern North America. Please plant the right tree in the right place.

Prized for its brilliant orange-red fall color and disease resistance, this exceptionally bright tree is an excellent focal point for your garden. In the spring, clusters of fragrant white flowers give way to edible purplish black fruit that is heavenly in jams, jellies and pies. Use this Saskatoon in shrub borders or as a small tree.
