Hedge Rose vs Aronia BerryRosa rugosa x Rosa woodsii (Improved hybrid developed by PFRA) Aronia melanocarpa SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2019) SOLD OUT 
Hedge Rose is a long-lived, fast-growing shrub. It bears similar flowers to the Alberta Wild Rose. Birds will love its deep red rose hips. Hedge Rose will thrive in a wide variety of soils and is a tall rose forming a useful hedge.
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. HEDGE ROSE QUICK FACTSARONIA BERRY QUICK FACTS
