The common rock pear, botanically known as Amelanchier ovalis, is a charming garden plant that is particularly effective in wild and romantic gardens or as a wild hedge plant. Its white flowers appear in April and May and create a delicate but eye-catching floral splendour that attracts bees and other insects.
Growing to a height of up to 2 metres, the common rock pear remains compact and is ideal for natural gardens, wild hedges or as an ornamental plant in mixed plantings. It is a native plant that occurs in the wild and blends in perfectly with the local flora.
The plant is hardy, so it also thrives reliably in cooler climates. Its fresh fruits are edible and can be used for jam or other treats. The common rock pear reveals its full beauty in autumn in particular, when the foliage turns warm shades of colour.
Note: Please note that the plant may look different from the pictures depending on the vegetation cycle.
