Red chokecherry
Aronia Arbutifolia Brilliant
Description
Aronia arbutifolia Brillant or Red chokecherry is a deciduous shrub which offers white flowers in spring, followed by edible red berries in autumn. Its leaves also take on beautiful orange-red colours this season, making it a decorative asset for the garden.
To cultivate Aronia arbutifolia Brillant in the garden, you must choose a sunny or partial shade location, sheltered from strong winds. It appreciates fresh, humus and well-drained soil, but also tolerates limestone or sandy soils. It is necessary to water regularly the first year of planting, then in the event of prolonged drought. Mulching at the foot helps conserve soil moisture and limits weeds.
