Rainbow Pillar Serviceberry is a small flowering native deciduous tree with a dense upright habit.  The finely toothed elliptic leaves turn brilliant shades of yellow to orange-red in fall.  Clusters of snowy white flowers bloom in spring before the foliage emerges and give way to small purplish-black fruit often used in jams and jellies.  Grows best in average well-drained soils.  Rainbow Pillar has improved resistance to powdery mildew.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Low maintenance.  Rust, leaf spot, blight, and powdery mildew are occasional disease problems.  Sawfly, leaf miners, and borers are occasional pests.
