Aronia Low Scape Mound® Chokeberry

A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrub, Aronia Low Scape Mound® is a true gem for any garden, this resilient shrub offers a visual feast from early spring through winter. This compact, deciduous beauty, native to the U.S., stands out for its adaptability and long-lasting seasonal appeal. Starting in spring, it adorns itself with clusters of delicate pale pink to white flowers, creating a soft, enchanting backdrop.

As the blooms fade, the foliage takes center stage, transitioning to lush, glossy green leaves that withstand the summer heat with remarkable resilience. Come autumn, these leaves put on a spectacular display, turning a brilliant shade of red, which contrasts beautifully with the deep purple berries that emerge.

Beyond its striking aesthetic, this shrub is incredibly hardy and low maintenance. Its compact size, reaching just 1 to 2 feet in height and spread, makes it ideal for small gardens, borders, and containers. It's particularly well-suited for use as an edging plant, where its tidy growth habit shines. Despite its delicate appearance, this shrub is tough, thriving in conditions that would challenge many other plants. It's highly tolerant of drought, heat, and even salty environments, making it a versatile choice for various landscaping needs.

In addition to its ornamental value, this shrub contributes to the local ecosystem. Its berries attract birds and other wildlife, while its flowers are a magnet for pollinators like bees and butterflies.

Plant it in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade and enjoy minimal maintenance while it rewards you with its year-round charm. Whether you're looking to enhance a garden bed, add interest to a patio container, or create a striking border, this shrub is a stellar choice that promises to delight in every season.
