Silverberry (Wolf Willow) vs Aronia BerryElaeagnus commutata Aronia melanocarpa
Silverberry (also known as Wolf Willow) is a common native North American shrub. This beautiful ornamental plant has characteristic silver leaves and fragrant yellow flowers.
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. SILVERBERRY (WOLF WILLOW) QUICK FACTSARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
