(Deciduous)The ‘Eskimo’ is a compact and delightful tree which is much smaller than many other varieties of Amelanchier, making it perfect for planting in the smaller garden or bordering a fence. The leaves of the ‘Eskimo’ are dark green and finely serrated at their edges and they can have a rosy blush to them when young. The spring flowers are a soft white colour and these later turn to purple-black fruits by late summer. In autumn, the leaves turn to blistering shades of orange and red before falling.
