Aronia isn't a fruit to eat fresh. Even though it can develop high
sugar (I've measured 23 Brix and more on ones I've tested) you can't
eat that many before the astringency makes your mouth feel dry. The
two main varieties are Nero and Viking. They top the list in
productivity. Hidden Springs Nursery has them.

Please send me the name of a nursery that sells Aronia melanocarpa
(sp) that tastes good.
I had some but they got uprooted when they were in the way but I
forgot where I bought them. So I got a new batch from a Conservation
tree place but the fruit has almost no flavor and leaves a bad after
taste. I need good tasting plants. Thanks.
