Anyone have a serviceberry blooming in part shade?

I just moved a Spring Flurry Serviceberry from full sun to part shade. It might be 3 hours of full sun.

Curious if anyone has a Serviceberry that blooms and fruits in part shade.

I remember I had another Serviceberry in full sun with some wind and just like the Spring Flurry it looked completely ratty the entire summer. Only bloomed heavy for 1 week and thats all I got out of it. Figure I get nicer foilage in a more protected part shade area.
