Red Currant vs Aronia BerryRibes rubrum Aronia melanocarpa NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Red Currant is a deciduous shrub native to western Europe. It features five-lobed, maple-like leaves, and bright red berries that can be used in jams, sauces, and fresh eating.
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. RED CURRANT QUICK FACTSARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
