Multi-season Interest
Appealing planted in masses - great for erosion control. This tiny but tough dwarf shrub thrives nearly anywhere. Hundreds of white flowers in spring are followed by black fruit in summer and intense red fall foliage. Chokeberry handles just about any landscape challenge: wet or dry soils, deer, hot or cold climates! Aronia Low Scape® Mound's berries are bitter in flavor until they are ripe; but tend to sweeten after a freeze. Serves as a food source for birds and other wildlife. Blooms on old wood.

Aronia General Information

Aronia Low Scape® Mound was developed by Dr. Mark Brand and Dr. Bryan Connolly at the University of Connecticut. Aronia berries are often used for baking, jelly and juicing. Birds love to feast on the berries and will quickly devour all that remain on this lovely shrub. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Aronia Plant Care

Very low maintenance. If desired, but not necessary, prune to shape after flowering. Prefers a sunny spot with well-drained soil.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
