Saskatoon - Standing Ovation

Standing Ovation is a columnar saskatoon bush that has a beautiful display of white blossoms in the spring, followed by many purple-blue berries. The leaves turn orange-red in the fall for, yet another, display of vibrant colour. The tree has an upright habit and can be used instead of columnar aspen. The berries are smaller than most saskatoons, but can be used for fresh eating, baking, preserves, dried, or frozen.
