Great for mass planting, the plant does sucker and will form colonies. Good for wetland reclamation. Good food source for birds. Tough, adaptable variety that will grow under wet or dry conditions, in full sun or part shade. Introduced by Chicagoland Grows®. Aronia berries can be eaten fresh, used for baking, jams, juice and wine.
