Variant CT Rainbow Pillar 7.5L Default Title

Quantity

A striking columnar serviceberry that delivers year round interest with its slender, upright form and ever changing foliage. In spring, delicate white star shaped flowers emerge alongside young leaves that unfurl in shades of peach and pink, maturing to variegated green with creamy white margins. The narrow growth habit makes it perfect for tight spaces where its autumn performance truly shines, as the foliage transforms into brilliant shades of orange, red and purple. Small dark berries follow the flowers, attracting birds while adding to the ornamental appeal. Unlike broader spreading serviceberries, this compact selection maintains its elegant pillar shape naturally, requiring minimal pruning to fit urban gardens or formal landscapes. The exceptional seasonal colour progression and space saving form make it ideal as a specimen plant or for creating vertical accents in mixed borders.
