Guía de cuidados

Plant in sun or partial shade in ordinary, moisture-retentive garden soil. Chokeberry is very tolerant of soil type and thrives even in wet or acidic ground. Water regularly in the first year; after that, the plant is self-sufficient. The berries are edible and suitable for juice and jam.

Consejos de poda

Prune in late winter to maintain shape. Remove a third of the oldest stems to ground level to encourage rejuvenation. The plant tolerates hard pruning well.
