Nantucket serviceberry belongs to a small, taxonomically slippery group within the rose family, so closely tangled with neighboring shadbushes that botanists have argued for more than a century over whether this is a true species or a stabilized hybrid.

This is a shrub built for lean living, spreading quietly by underground stolons into low drifts rather than rising into a single crown. White flowers open in mid-spring on short, erect racemes, feeding early bees and butterflies, and give way by early summer to small pomes that birds strip almost as fast as they ripen.

The plant came to us through our friend Ted Stephens of Nurseries Caroliniana, who introduced the selection from Japan, and earned the name 'Splashy' from Woodlanders' own Bob McCartney, who has always had an eye for the right word. 'Splashy' appears to stay lower and more compact than the typical species, and the berries come a little more sparingly, a fair trade for foliage that carries the show from spring until frost.

After the twin freezes of 1894 and 1895 laid waste to Florida's groves, Walter T. Swingle of the United States Department of Agriculture set out to breed citrus that could shrug off a cold snap, and in 1909 he crossed the sharp little West Indian or Key lime (Citrus aurantifolia) with the round Marumi kumquat (Fortunella japonica).

Cooks prize the Eustis for marmalade and preserves, for a squeeze over fish, and above all for the bar, where a limequat stands in for lime with a sweeter, more aromatic edge.
