I try to squeeze as much visual value out of every square foot of every garden or landscape that I design. To do that, I try to use plants that offer multiple seasons of interest, are well adapted to the conditions a site presents, and are resistant to insect pests and diseases.

Near the very top of the list of plants that fit the above criteria are red and black chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia and Aronia melanocarpa, respectively).
