Description

Unlike most Juneberry trees, Amelanchier x grandiflora 'Robin Hill' has pink buds that open to pretty pale pink flowers in late March and April. The star-shaped flowers can fade to white and are joined by bronzed green young leaves. The oval leaves are finely serrated and turn darker green in summer, followed by magnificent shades of red and orange in autumn. Small purple-black berries are also produced in autumn, which can be eaten, although are often left as a treat for hungry birds.

Amelanchier x grandiflora 'Robin Hill' has a more upright habit than some Amelanchier and broadens a little with age to gain a height and spread of 4 x 3 metres in 20 years. This fantastic Amelanchier is hardy and tough, growing in most soils including damp sites. Also tolerant of pollution, it is little surprise that 'Robin Hill' has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Planting Steps

1Preparation

Pot-grown plants can be planted at any time of year, whereas bare roots need to be planted between November and March.
Clear weeds and grass within a metre of the planting hole.
Dig a hole as deep as the root mass and twice as wide.
To help your plant establish more effectively, sprinkle Rootgrow in the hole.

2Planting

Gently loosen the roots and place into the planting hole.
Ensure the top of the plant's compost is flush with the level of the surrounding soil and the graft union or collar of the tree is above ground level.
Mix 50% of the original soil with 50% compost.
Fill in the hole, firming the soil gently.

3Last Steps

Water generously around the base of the plant.
If you are planting either a single stem tree or mature standard tree, we recommend adding a staking kit and rabbit guard.

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
