    Looks like Amelanchier lamarckii.
    Perthshire. SCOTLAND .

    @Silver surfer - thanks. Pleased you said that as that's what I'd tentatively IDed it as, but I wasn't sure as I've never had one before.

    Didn't realise it could get that big!

    It might be trying to find light as it's shaded to the south by some big conifers, to the west by a big ash, and to the east by something I've yet to identify :) But I want to prune this last one to give the Amelanchier a little more light, but daren't until I work out what it is. It's just starting into leaf so there may be another one to be IDed soon!

    I'm now wondering if it's Amalanchier canadensis? I have bought, and planted, a bare-rooted A. lamarckii so I will be able to compare the two (probably in a few years time!).
