Aronia prunifolia is a small, upright, horizontal branched shrub that receives great interest during the months of Autumn due to its magnificent fiery red and orange autumn colour and the hundreds of purple-black berries that are produced. When the pine-scented blackcurrants become ripe enough, they can be made into an excellent jam or can be used to make tasty muffins. The fruits are high in antioxidants. Self-fertile and tolerates a range of soil. The Purple Chokeberry branches out freely and is suitable to be grown in a pot on the patio.
- We have excellent quality, 8-10cm tall starter plants on offer.
