Aronia melanocarpa 'SMNAMPEM' USPP 34,116 Low Scape Snowfire® Aronia 3g

You don't have to sacrifice beauty to grow a garden with native plants. Low Scape Snowfire aronia has all the flower power of a typical garden plant but still supports local pollinators and wildlife. It is blanketed in little white flowers in the springtime, to the delight of busy pollinators. This flurry of blooms complements most perennials, shrubs, and annuals. In summer it blends in, making a great backdrop for summer bloomers, but by autumn it's ready to shine again with bright red foliage and dark blue fruits. You can plant this versatile native in practically any condition; warm and cool climates, wet and dry soil, and full sun to part sun. 

Can also be used as an edible fruit crop although the fruit is too astringent to eat raw. The high-antioxidant fruit is used in baking and to make jams, jellies, syrup, tea, juice and wine.
