Regent Saskatoon Serviceberry is another great serviceberry! This one is highly ornamental with a profusion of fragrant white flower clusters in spring followed by small green berries that turn a dark blue when ready for harvest. The berries look similar to blueberries and taste just as good! Like all flowering shrubs, this is a great plant to attract pollinators to the garden. Wonderful autumn leaf color from gold to red. 2007 GreatPlants® for the Great Plains winner.

Throughout this site, the following are used as guidelines for watering established plants:
These truly xeric plants can live with our 12 inches of natural annual precipitation and only need a winter watering during a multi-year drought, but they will thrive with a monthly watering. Overwatering will kill some of these. These plants are adapted to intermittent deep
watering with soil drying to a depth of a few inches between waterings. Watering frequency may be every couple of weeks during the active growing season and maybe only one winter watering for optimal care. These plants need regular watering somewhat like a bluegrass lawn so that
they never dry to depth in the root system during the active growing season, and need occasional winter watering to prevent root dessication and resultant plant
death. About sizes of our plants:
Sizes indicated with a # are roughly the equivalent in gallonage; so a #2 is about a 2 gallon pot size; b&b stands for balled and burlapped.
