ARONIA MEL VIKING
Grower Notes:

Aronia melanocarpa 'Viking' is commonly referred to as the Viking Black Chokeberry. It is an upright, spreading, multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with brilliant reddish-purple fall color. Clusters of white flowers appear in spring (earlier than other cultivars) followed by edible black fruit which attracts wildlife.

Viking Black Chokeberry enjoys full to part sun in evenly moist, well-drained soils. For best fruit production, plant in full sun.

The fruits of Aronia melanocarpa varieties (Aronia berries) have been found to be very beneficial to human health, including anti-diabetic, anti-infective, anti-obesity, and antioxidant activities, as well as for your heart and liver function.
