Description
Additional information

Ground Hug Chokeberry knits together broad areas with a ground-hugging framework that looks intentional rather than wild. A practical note for Ground Hug Chokeberry: Older stems can be removed at ground level from time to time to keep the center open and vigorous. A well-placed Ground Hug Chokeberry can make a border feel intentional without making it feel formal. Compare Ground Hug Chokeberry with other shrubs at The Greenhouse Nursery in Logan, UT.
