Nature's "superberries" because of its extraordinary nutritional value. They are similar in size to blueberries and a deep violet in colour. The health benefits are based on its very high levels of anthocyanins and flavonoids. Three times the antioxidants of blueberries and five to ten times higher than cranberries, with beneficial nutrients such as antioxidants, polyphenols, minerals and vitamins. Also known to improve the circulation of blood, make blood vessels stronger, help keep blood pressure at normal levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. They have also been proven to help treating stomach problems including gastric ulcers and diarrhea. It also serves as anti-carcinogenic agent. The effect of the berries on cancer is known to be rather effective especially for those suffering from colon cancer. Viking is the most productive cultivar of the Aronia, yielding as high as 5 tons per acre. This easy-to-grow native plant is loaded with black berries that ripen in late summer and can hang on the bush throughout winter. Berries are very high in antioxidants and are great used for wine, juices, jam, baking and more. Highly ornamental shrub features fragrant, white blooms and glossy green foliage.

Sadly, my Viking Aronia bare root never leafed out. I planted out the next day received (an overcast day), followed the instructions and it seems dead. All other bare root berry bushes I received from other vendors are flourishing and doing well. I don't know if this is normal with Aronia.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that your Viking Aronia has not leafed out.
Aronia can sometimes be slower to break dormancy than other bare root shrubs, and the timing can vary depending on weather, soil temperatures, and growing conditions. While it is not uncommon for some plants to take longer to establish, we understand your concern, especially when your other bare root plants are already growing well.
If your Aronia has still not shown any signs of growth after 10 weeks from planting, we encourage you to submit a warranty claim if you have not already done so. Please email garden@ttseeds.com with clear photos of the entire plant, the planting area, and the product tag (if available), along with your order number and planting date. Our Customer Service team will be happy to review your claim and follow up with you.
We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to assist you.
