Berry Scape® Aronia is the kind of shrub that wins you over from the start. Spring begins with an abundance of soft white flowers, followed by neatly clustered berries that hang in elegant, weeping displays. As the season progresses, the berries transition from sunny yellow to orange, then mature into a striking apple red—providing not only vivid color, but a valuable food source for birds.
Come fall, the foliage joins the show, turning rich red to match the berries and creating a dramatic, cohesive look that lasts well into the season. Native to North America, Berry Scape® is as resilient as it is beautiful. It thrives in heat, tolerates drought once established, and isn’t fazed by salt or poor soils. Whether you're filling a challenging spot or simply looking for a multi-season ornamental shrub, Berry Scape® Aronia delivers lasting charm with very little fuss.

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Aronia blooms on old wood, so if pruning is required, it should be pruned immediately after flowering. Do note, however, that this will remove the potential for fruit to form. If you need to manage the spread of the plant, that can be done as needed.
