Ground Hug® Black Chokeberry, Aronia melanocarpa 'UCONNAM012'
The easiest way to a lush carpet of green! Ground Hug® aronia is a super tough native shrub that naturally grows as a dense groundcover. This unique habit makes it the ideal plant for transforming difficult areas into beautiful, low maintenance plantings. Spring brings a flurry of dainty white flowers nestled among the glossy green foliage; come fall, dark purple berries develop, along with outstanding red foliage.
