Russian Almond vs Viking Aronia BerryPrunus tenella Aronia melanocarpa Viking SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
Russian Almond is a low maintenance, short, slightly suckering shrub. It is covered with attractive, bright pink flowers in early spring before its foliage emerges.
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. RUSSIAN ALMOND QUICK FACTSVIKING ARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
