While Kodiak ® diervillas may not be the most flashy shrubs you’ll ever plant, you will definitely appreciate how hard-working they are – and how much work they save you. All summer long, all three varieties are dotted with yellow flowers that attract pollinators. Come fall, the foliage really comes alive, appearing lit from within, which makes them the perfect alternative to burning bush in places where it has become invasive. Kodiak ® Black diervilla emerges in shades of deep purple black Kodiak ® Orange in shades of orange and red and Kodiak ® Red in a deep and handsome red. The Kodiak ® series of diervilla offers three vivid foliage colors to spice up even your most troublesome spots. Growing wild over much of the eastern United States and Canada, diervilla is a quiet, refined shrub that does a lot in the landscape but asks very little from you. This tough species can grow in most any soil and even tolerates shade well. Low Scape ® Hedger aronia has a taller but narrow habit, so it makes the perfect low hedge for landscaping or screening off air conditioners and the like. Low Scape ® Mound aronia naturally grows as a tidy little tuffet, making it the perfect groundcover or edging. Previously, aronia was only available as a large shrub or small tree, but Low Scape ® aronias make this versatile, durable species available to all with new, smaller habits. Finally, come autumn, the whole plant blazes with brilliant orange, red, and yellow color. As summer wears on, purple-black fruits develop. Spring brings a blanket of white flowers, each dotted with bright pink pollen in the center. Sometimes known by the unfortunate name of chokeberry (thanks to its edible but astringent fruit), aronia is a beautiful North American native with multi-season appeal.
