Virginia Creeper vs Aronia BerryParthenocissus quinquefolia Aronia melanocarpa SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
Virginia Creeper is a fast-growing, climbing vine. Its root-like tendrils attach themselves to any non-smooth surface, even brick, but will also grow as a ground cover.
Aronia Berry is native to Eastern Canada and the Eastern United States. This branching shrub forms well rooted clumps that can spread. Flowers are usually white (or pink) and they produce black fruit that some people find too astringent, hence they are also known as Black Chokeberry. People who like the taste and not the astringent tannins often blend the berries or juice in with other things. VIRGINIA CREEPER QUICK FACTSARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
