Canadian Buffalo Berry vs Aronia BerryShepherdia canadensis Aronia melanocarpa ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW SOLD OUT 
Canadian Buffalo Berry is a native deciduous shrub found throughout North America. This hardy, medium-sized shrub will tolerate poor soil conditions and produces attractive, edible–though very bitter–red fruit.
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. CANADIAN BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
