Chokeberry Seeds produce a perennial deciduous shrub commonly known in the United States as chokeberry. Plants develop upright stems with glossy green leaves and produce clusters of small white flowers followed by dark-colored edible berries. This plant adapts well to full sun or partial shade and well-drained fertile soil and is suitable for garden beds, hedges, and home landscapes in temperate climates.
