Product description

Discover the Power of the Black Currant (Aronia melanocarpa)

Welcome to The Black Appleberry, your ally for a lush garden and a healthy lifestyle! Also known as Aronia melanocarpa, this native deciduous shrub is affectionately called the 'Dutch Appleberry'. With its elegant, columnar habit, this shrub adds a touch of class to any outdoor space.

Characteristics of the Black Appleberry:

Leaf loss: In spring, the dark green, glossy leaves unfold in an inverted egg-shaped splendour. During autumn, the shrub treats you to a stunning display of orange-red leaves, a true eye-catcher in your garden.

Blossoms and berries: Be enchanted by the white flowers that bloom in lush corymbs in May and June. These are later replaced by the deep black, glossy berries, a real treat for the eyes and taste buds.

Ideal Stand: Whether you have a sunny spot or prefer a touch of shade, the Black Appleberry thrives in both full sun and semi-shade. Just make sure the soil is well-drained and not too dry or heavy.

Hardiness: Don't worry about harsh winters! This tough shrub effortlessly braves the coldest months and is also resistant to sea winds and air pollution.

Nature-friendly: The Black Appleberry not only attracts bees and butterflies with its beautiful blossoms, but is also known for its excellent disease resistance.

Nutritious Berries: Black currants are not only pleasing to the eye but also a source of vitamin C. Use them to make delicious jams and jellies and enjoy their healthy benefits.

Tips for Planting and Maintenance:

Choose the Right Place: Select a location with sufficient sunlight and well-drained soil. Avoid too dry or too heavy soil.

Planting: Dig a generous planting hole and mix the soil with compost for optimum growth. Place the shrub at the right depth and water generously after planting.

Water and Feed: Keep the soil moist, especially during dry periods. Give a light fertiliser in spring to stimulate growth.

Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain the shape and health of the shrub. Remove dead or diseased branches and thin the shrub if necessary.

With these tips, you are ready to enrich your garden with the beautiful and versatile Black Appleberry. Enjoy its beauty, nourishment and easy maintenance, and let your garden shine!
