I have 3 serviceberry trees in my yard and I had no idea I could eat them! I harvested them for the first time today and wow! Delicious!

I love the flavor of service berries! I freeze them on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Once frozen I transfer to freezer bags and store in my freezer. This way I can easily take out the amount I need for my oatmeal, ice cream, muffins, pies, etc.

Serviceberries -or as we call them in my area, juneberries - can basically be substituted for blueberries and almost anything. I personally like to eat mine fresh with yogurt but they also work wonderfully in baked goods

Thankfully your video has made me take a second look at serviceberries for our garden. Now we need them.☺

Have 900 trees and we sell 5 ponds at a time for $25 we also make jam and sell that you can make pie , crisp , mix with other berries and make more things

The park near my home has at least 20 of those trees. No one pick them, so my wife and I have the chance to enjoy them :)

Wow they are beautiful…can’t wait to try one of these in the spring..

I have one that I have moved a dozen times! Your video helped me decide on a permanent site! Thank you!!

I absolutely love Serviceberries! I have а one such tree, and the birds are crazy about it. So am I!

Haha, those little Robins are so cute! 😁

Very informative videos! Thank you! Keep up the good work!

Here in Canada we call them Saskatoon berries. They're native to the prairies here. They make excellent pies, jams etc. We like the Northline and Smokey varieties. They also freeze well, which is great if you want a homemade Saskatoon berry pie in the winter ;)

Thank you so much for this!

Thank you for this video. I've been wanting to get a tree or bush to compliment feeding the birds. This is perfect!

Thank you ma'am, that was an informative video I have been thinking of importing this tree to my country and that helps me

i am so excited to see this!! i got 4 serviceberry plants for my yard

Nice video, I just ordered 5 - Thiessen Saskatoon plants.

I don’t have a tree myself but harvest from a tree I share with the bears in CO. I put them in coffee cake or substitute them for blueberries in recipes. They do have a soft edible seed that aren’t noticeable when not eaten by themselves

Thank you so much for this video. We just got some of these trees from the National Arbor Day folks that were substituted and we are trying to nurse the seedlings we received. If they can recover from their trip to us, they will be beautiful trees. Best of luck to you 😊

I discovered these yesterday at a local preserve I googled and came to find out they're called serviceberry , the flavor is just mind blowing good! Best way I can describe it is a fusion of blueberry, strawberry and mango

great informative video. Just planted one. It is a singles stem tree form. Cannot wait until spring to see her bloom!

good video!!! I'm sold on serviceberries but don't know if the trees can stand wind in the oklahoma, arkansas, missouri area... may need to plant bushes... thanks a lot!!!

I really enjoyed your video. I live in Florida so i don't think it will grow here. But it was a great show.

Just subscribed… really enjoy your channel 😊 Just starting my channel and excited to get more content up..thank you for the inspiration

I planted a whole hedge of the Regent along the sidewalk; they were billed as only growing 4-6' tall. Hmmm. I might have to be pruning them. I love the range of colors as the berries develop into ripeness. The birds go crazy over the 'Autumn Brilliance' that I have and strip it before they hop around in the Regents. I find the flavor of the Regent to be a little insipid and watery; even so, I froze a few containers. I mix them with fruit that is a little more sour, like blueberries or strawberries, and they act as natural sweeteners. Huge value in that! I will need to pick more this upcoming season as I have a 120' hedge of them. Mine haven't colored up so much in the fall; I'm hoping it's because they are all relatively young--3-4 years old.

We have 4 of them in our yard, between the birds, and the squirrels have never been able to eat any. We also have gooseberries, but the tend to spread.

More uses than just fresh eating. Pies, cobblers, crisps, jelly, syrups

They are great in a cobbler

Thank you for this comprehensive video. I have five serviceberry plants that just arrived, so I'm doing some refresher training before putting them in the ground. Is it best to direct plant very small trees, or should I consider potting them for a while first?

I found a source for several different Serviceberry plants, and I'm going to buy a LOT! I have acres in central California and I want trees/shrubs that will just go WILD and benefit ALL wildlife-- birds and bees and all others. I've been growing crabapples for 20 years, but nothing eats the fruit, so I'm looking for something new-- also buying Sorbus and Rhus species.

Jellies and pies. Oh my!

Thumbs up for allowing the robins to eat the berries. After all we invaded their territory with our houses.

Thanks for the info. I have been looking at getting one but have a couple of questions. Do they drop the ripe fruit all over the ground? I want to plant one somewhat near my driveway but don’t want squashed fruit everywhere.

Love the video! How far away from the house would you suggest planting a serviceberry?

I want a serviceberry!!

Добрый день! Что это за сорт? Как называется сорт ирги?

I have a couple more questions. At what height and approximate age did you plant your Regent Serviceberry plants? Did you order them online or buy them from a local nursery? Do you remember how long after you planted them before they started flowering & fruiting?

I just bought a couple small plants from Tractor Supply. I was wondering about the growth rate. Any info would be great.....Thx....and thanks for the video also.

Thank you for the video about the service berries! Ive just planted Martin Saskatoon serviceberry bare roots. I have no experience with these berry plants, i dont even know what they taste like. No much info about them on the internet either. My plants are 1 year old. How soon will they produce berries?

i heard her say fresh eating was the only use. they make good jam. My stepmom likes to freeze them and eat them with yogurt too.

Are both of your serviceberry plants "Regent"? How many hours of Sunlight do your serviceberry plants get? And is it morning sunlight or afternoon or evening sunlight? What flavors do you associate or compare their taste with? AWESOME VIDEO!!!

Thank you. When is the proper time to prune a Service Berry? Not sure on the species and I’m in North Carolina.

Hi there! Ive noticed that your service plants are pretty close to your house. Is it Ok? Im planning to plant saskatoon martin and i read that they should be planted 10 feet away from the house but i dont have that much space. Just wondering if it creates any problems for you? Thanks

Thanks for your video. I planted an autumn brilliance service berry tree just this year. It has 3 trunks and is about 7' tall. But now it has a couple of new shoots coming up at the base of the tree. Would these be new trees I could transplant? Or should I just cut them off?

How do you eat them? I have a small bush and just tried my first berry. Seems like a fairly large seed

Hello, I had two in containers that i got plenty of fruit off of. I decided to plant them in the ground and one did not service the winter. Now, the one left is growing well but ZERO fruit, do I need a pollinator? Thank you young lady!

What do you recommend using for rust fungus on the leaves of serviceberry?

I was camping and I came upon a serviceberry bush and stupid me I was like 100% convinced that it was a blueberry... Until I ate one and I was like holy crap, what is that? It's not a blueberry but it tastes amazing! I planted one in my yard from a 1 gallon I found in the native section of our nursery (not sure how good it will taste) and I can't wait until it flowers! I learned later that I definitely didn't give it enough space though :( . Thanks for the video, I think serviceberry doesn't get the attention that it deserves.

You say eating whole is the only usage? Are they juicy, and could they be made into a pancake syrup?

Great video! How old is your tree?

Can these be propagated from cuttings or air layers?

I want to plant, but i dunno how much need to be distances between plants, and how must be pruning on spring,for the 1st year ,2nd year, 3rd year ...

Hey! Any idea where you can buy them in Utah?

I have one too! Do you have any problems with apple cedar rust?

Hi. I grew 50 serviceberry trees from seed. First years growth was c4 inches and this year's growth is c2 feet. The problem is that everyone of them has fallen horizontally. Is this normal or has it something to do with the compost that I used. (Multi purpose compost) Thank you Patrick

Thanks I'm considering this for my garden. What's your favourite variety? And are they beneficial to nature. Thanks

Can I ask, an you prune them? If so, how? Thank you

Are they invasive in ur country - USA i guess? Are those spreading from roots, or seeds? I have 3 of those - in Poland - and as far as I know, those are invasive in here - spread by birds, and by roots. Are those of urs grafted, and on what can u graft those? I asked many questions, but this plant is still just couriosity in Poland.

Birds are no joke with these. They strip clean my trees of every single berry if I don't net them

😀

Are these not saskatoons?

Is this a Saskatoon berry?

Hey, I'm considering to buy some serviceberry plants, but when I read about them, they can get huge. Can I control their hight and spread like other fruit trees in backyard orchard culture system? I wrote that before watching whole vide because I'm so impatient and I love to get informations.

Honey! If your nails weren’t dirty, I’d question you.. 🤣 .. i scrub mine.. during gardening season.. I try to keep them short! We know! Some don’t understand.. dirty nails are not always a sign of being unclean.. its often a sign of hard working!

You didn't actually say anything about how to care for service berries. Light or soil needs? Pruning?

Also known as Saskatoons

They look like blueberries kinda

Nothing in this video gave information on how to grow and care for serviceberries.

Very unfortunate name, serviceberry
