Red Chokeberry (Aronia arbitifolia)

$16.00
Only 5 available

Aronia arbutifolia is a beautiful native shrub for damp soils and full sun. Loved for its brilliant Autumn colors of orange, yellow and red.

Pollinators love Red Chokeberry for it’s clusters of white blooms in Spring while birds and other mammals rely on its red berries as an ‘emergency’ food source in late Winter.

Chokeberry shrubs naturally form into thickets naturalizing the garden and providing vital Winter shelter to birds and other wildlife including pheasant, grouse and turkey.

QUICK DEETS

  • Happiest in moist to average well draining soils ~ tolerant of clay and sandy loam once established

  • Fruits best in full sun but at home in part shade. Fruits are high in pectin and can be made into jams & jellies!

  • Grows 6-12’ tall

  • Pair with Buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis) and Silky Dogwood (Cornus amomum) for a beautiful wildlife hedge or in a rain garden!

Grown for you by White Oak Nursery in 5×8 tree pot

Reserve your shrub before September 5 for pickup up at our private ‘Early Bird Party’ on September 12
