Good choices for forcing this month include serviceberry (
Amelanchier), magnolia (Magnolia), flowering quince (Chaenomeles), forsythia (Forsythia), crab apple or apple (Malus), flowering pear (Pyrus), flowering cherry (Prunus), spring-flowering witch hazel (Hamamelis vernalis) and redbud (Cercis).
Trees such as acers, liquidambar,
amelanchier and parrotia deliver a tremendous display of rich orange and red foliage as we head towards winter, while late-flowering perennials, such as the bold yellow rudbeckia, can add wonderful contrast to more sombre autumn planting.
Acers, for example, can be extremely pricey, but some argue you can get the same effect with cheaper trees such as cherry or
Amelanchier.
The snowy mespilus,
Amelanchier lamarckii Ballerina, is either grown as a small tree or a multi-stemmed shrub.
Jessica told us the tree's Latin name is
Amelanchier arborea, but that it had had a variety of common names and etymologies in early North America: shadbush, because it often grows in riparian forests at the edges of rivers where the shad run.
The site was north-facing within an old seed-tree cut now dominated by a mixed stand of young Western Larch, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa), with a shrub layer including alder (Alnus sp.), Saskatoon Serviceberry (
Amelanchier alnifolia), Mallow-leaf Ninebark (Physocarpus malvaceus), and Rocky Mountain Maple (Acer glabrum).
