Deer here eat pawpaws, black currants, extra-thorny gooseberries, 
lilies-of-the-valley, and hellebores. I can only assume they'd eat aronia too.

Deer do eat Aronia in south central Montana.  I have to net the plants to 
get fruit.  They eat flowers as well as foliage.

Please tell the deer in southwest Wisconsin.  I have several hundred
planted and they are browsed to the level of the tree tubes everytime
I turn around.
