Success Starts With Soil

Berry Scape Aronia thrives in a range of challenging conditions. Tolerating heat, drought, and poor soil. Its first display is a cloud of nicely spaced white flowers in springtime, looking loose and carefree in the garden. Those flowers turn into super showy clusters of berries, which ripen from yellow to orange to vibrant red. The color progression is fun to watch, and provides a feast for birds which is another show altogether! Foliage also turns a brilliant red in fall, turning it into a well-rounded showpiece for wild gardens and formal spaces alike.

Growing Tips for Aronia arbutifolia 'Berry Scape®'

Aronia is one of the toughest, most durable shrubs, and needs little care. If you wish to prune, the best time is immediately after it blooms. However, be aware that this will remove the potential for any fruit to form. Plant in full to partial sun.
