Low Scape Mound Aronia is a tough, tolerant, tidy little mound of glossy green foliage. In spring, it’s covered in hundreds of dainty white flowers, and in autumn, the leaves turn brilliant red to contrast with dark purple-black fruit.

The unique low-growing, mound-shaped habit of this new variety makes it perfect for mass planting as a ground cover or edging plant as it spreads outward via suckers. It naturalizes a space beautifully. Best of all, it thrives almost anywhere: cold and hot climates, wet and dry soils, sun and part shade. This native shrub will gracefully handle any landscape challenge you can throw at it!

Top three reasons to grow Low Scape Mound Aronia:
– Low-growing, mounded habit, perfect for edging and groundcover
– Tolerates a wide range of growing conditions
– White flowers in spring; Dark purple fruit and brilliant fall foliage.
