Red Elderberry vs Viking Aronia BerrySambucus racemosa Aronia melanocarpa Viking SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Red Elderberry is an attractive, medium-sized deciduous shrub.
Viking Aronia Berry is easy to grow, with black berries that are high in antioxidants. The Viking variety is much more productive than the non cultivar Aronia Berry. The berries can be eaten fresh but are found to be tart and bitter. They are more often used in baking, jams, juices, and wine. They have small, white flowers with a hint of pink that grow evenly on the shrub. The summer foliage turns a very attractive red in the fall. RED ELDERBERRY QUICK FACTSVIKING ARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
