A four-season charmer that starts with soft pink spring blooms and ends with fiery fall color, all while looking effortlessly put together
FEATURES:
- Blush-pink spring blooms that open from rosy buds into airy clusters
- Edible summer berries that birds love (and you can snack on too, if you’re quick)
- Show-stopping fall color in warm shades of orange, red, and gold
- Smooth gray bark and refined branching for winter interest when everything else is bare
- Ideal small tree for front yards, patios, and tighter landscape spaces
- Pollinator-friendly spring flowers that bring the garden to life early
- Hand Selected; Fresh from the Grower
- Ships on our trucks because the size of the tree - does not fit in a box.
Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip:
Want that spring bloom to look extra dreamy? Give it a dark backdrop. Place Robin Hill in front of deep green evergreens or a rich fence line, then underplant with white bulbs and soft-textured perennials. The pink blooms float more, the shape feels cleaner, and your neighbors suddenly start “casually” walking by your house more often.

Why plant Robin Hill Serviceberry?
Some trees are one-hit wonders. Robin Hill Serviceberry is a full album. In early spring, it kicks off the season with soft pink blooms, a rare treat in the serviceberry world where white is usually the headliner. As the flowers fade, the tree settles into a graceful, multi-season rhythm: fresh green foliage, berries that ripen into summer, and then a grand finale of glowing fall color that makes you look like you hired a landscape designer with excellent taste.
Serviceberries are beloved for their native toughness and easy elegance, and ‘Robin Hill’ adds a little extra romance. It’s the tree you plant when you want your yard to feel established, welcoming, and just a bit magical, without signing up for high-maintenance theatrics.
How to use Robin Hill Serviceberry in the landscape?
Plant Robin Hill Serviceberry as a focal point in a front yard bed, where its spring bloom and fall color can steal the show up close. It’s equally at home near patios and walkways, offering light shade and seasonal interest without overwhelming smaller spaces. Use it as an understory tree beneath taller oaks or maples, or tuck it into a mixed border with hydrangeas, inkberry, and ornamental grasses for a layered, natural look. If you’re building a pollinator-friendly landscape, this tree plays beautifully with flowering perennials and native shrubs, creating a welcoming “rest stop” for bees, butterflies, and songbirds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Robin Hill blooms in soft blush-pink tones, opening from rosy buds into airy, delicate clusters. It’s a gentle, romantic spring show that stands out from typical white-blooming serviceberries.
Plant in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil. Water deeply and consistently during the first growing season to establish strong roots, then provide supplemental water during extended heat or drought. A layer of mulch helps retain moisture, just keep it a few inches away from the trunk.
Prune only as needed to remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. The best time is late winter to early spring before new growth begins. If your tree grows as a multi-stem form, you can lightly thin for airflow while keeping its natural, graceful shape.
