    Thank you, I tried to get it identified late last year but with no leaves it was difficult, now it has some foliage it's easier !

    Looks fabulous ! I'm looking forward to seeing the flowers and then the birds eating the fruits!

    @JAYJARDIN I remember your Amelanchier from an earlier post. Lovely Autumn colours.
    Just a plain green leaf in Summer but makes a good backdrop for so many other colourful plants.
    I have worked as a Gardener for 24 years. My latest garden is a new build garden on heavy clay.
