Proven Winners® GROUND HUG® Aronia 
Aronia melanocarpa 'UCONNAM012' pp#31,821; CBRAF
Botanical Reference: Aronia melanocarpa '
 
The ideal landscape groundcover, filling in difficult spaces such as parking lot beds, slopes, or anywhere mowing would be difficult or undesirable. This dwarf aronia naturally grows as a thick, dense mat, eliminating the need for weeding and mulching as well. Glossy foliage, white spring flowers, dark purple berries in late summer, and autumn foliage in hues of brilliant orange-red make this native plant as showy as it is adaptable. Developed by Dr. Mark Brand at the University of Connecticut.
