Amelanchier La Paloma blossom
La Paloma has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit

La Paloma features long trailing cascades of white flowers in early spring.

The blossom is followed by large leaves which emerge coppery-green before turning pale green over the summer. In autumn they take on orange and red tints.
