🌿 Origin and taxonomy
  • The ‘Isaac’ cultivar is often identified as Amelanchier alnifolia ‘Isaac’ or Amelanchier × wiegandii ‘Isaac’.
  • It is therefore a variety of saskatoon/serviceberry, selected for its fruit and ornamental qualities.

📏 Size, habit & hardiness
  • Mature height
    • Approximately 1.5 m to 1.8 m depending on location and conditions.
  • Width
    • Approximately 1 m to 1.5 m in many descriptions.
  • Hardiness
    • Zone 2 / 2b: resistant to severe cold.

🍒 Fruit & flowering
  • Flowering: in spring, around May. White flowers.
  • Harvest: often in July.
  • Fruit: large for this family, sweet, tasty, generally highly rated for fresh consumption or processing (jams, pies, etc.). Dark purple/blue color.

🌞 Growing conditions
  • Exposure: full sun or partial shade.
  • Soil: prefers well-drained, rich soil that can be moist but not waterlogged. Tolerates acidic soil.
  • Tolerance: tolerates spring flooding, some difficult soils, fairly undemanding in terms of pH.

✅ Advantages

  • Fairly high yield for a compact shrub.
  • Large fruit with a pleasant taste.
  • Decorative habit well suited to small gardens or fruit hedges.
  • Very hardy, tolerates cold climates.

⚠ Points to watch out for / limitations

  • Ripe fruit may fall if not harvested quickly.
  • Water well during dry periods to maintain productivity.
  • Although tolerant, like all serviceberries, it can be susceptible to certain diseases or poorly drained (overly wet) or overly compacted soil. (This is more general for the genus, not always specific to ‘Isaac’.)

Hardiness Zones

  • 2b, 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, 9a
