The flowering of the adult serviceberry (amelanchier alnifolia) is sudden and spectacular.
Called Juneberry by the Americans, Saskatoon by the Cree Indians, the saskatoon tree is native to Canada.
This one is 12 years old. It produces fruits in profusion, like blueberry grapes, blue or purple but with a different taste. By planting a hedge with several varieties, the harvest is spread out.
Each little flower will become a berry. We will show them to you in June.
The borage (Borago officinalis) is melliferous. The proof in pictures.
