About Live Plant From Green Promise Farms Aronia
A live outdoor plant from Green Promise Farms. ARONIA ARBUTIFOLIA`BRILLIANTISSIMA` Clusters of pinkish white flowers provide nectar for pollinators. Dense bunches of glossy red fruit ripen in summer and persist through the winter, providing food for birds. Foliage turns a brilliant red in autumn, great alternative to the non-native, burning bush (Euonymus alatus). Chokeberries aren't palatable to birds until they have been frosted multiple times, so the berries persist well into the season for you to enjoy. Grow TipsPlant in full sun to partial shade. This shrub is trouble free when planted in a rich, consistently moist soil. Be sure to provide plenty of space for growth. Prune in late winter or early spring for size reduction and rejuvenation.
