Growing native plants is the latest trend in gardening and the Black Chokeberry is high on the list of suitable small shrubs. This bush grows wild throughout the east and is especially suitable if you live in colder regions, since it is hardy to minus 40 degrees. It has beautiful clusters of white flowers in spring and bunches of black berries in late summer that attract lots of birds – an added natural bonus.
• Great small shrub for natural gardens
• Attractive flowers and a heavy berry crop
• Easy to grow in normal or wet soil
• Perfect along a stream or beside a pond
• Hardy to minus 40 degrees
The Black Chokeberry is also a great choice for damp or wet parts of the garden, although it will be happy in average soil conditions too. This is the perfect choice for environmentally-friendly planting even in the coldest regions. The fruit is too tart to eat straight from the bush but it is just perfect for preserving.
