Amelanchier bartramiana Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Prefers a rich loamy soil in a sunny position or semi-shade[1, 200] but thrives in any soil, including chalk, so long as it is not too dry or water-logged[11, 200]. Grows well in heavy clay soils. Plants are hardy to about -30°c[184]. All members of this genus have edible fruits and, whilst this is dry and uninteresting in some species, in many others it is sweet and juicy. Many of the species have potential for use in the garden as edible ornamentals. The main draw-back to this genus is that birds adore the fruit and will often completely strip a tree before it is fully ripe[K]. This species hybridises with A. sanguinea, A. humilis, A. stolonifera, A. fernaldii and A. canadensis. Grafting onto seedlings of A. lamarckii or Sorbus aucuparia is sometimes practised in order to avoid the potential problem of hybridizing[1].
