Amelanchier candensis 'White Pillar'

摘要

An Amelanchier canadensis tree grown in a cultivated area of a nursery near Princeton, N.J., which tree is distinctly columnar in overall appearance in contrast to other Amelanchier canadensis trees which are much more spreading, the instant variety being resistant to leaf spot fungi which causes defoliation of the usual Amelanchier trees in warm, humid weather, and the very abundant blooms of the tree which substantially hide the branches, the fall colors of its leaves providing a mixture of reds and purples.
