Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

Aronia Berries.........
The aronia berry bush seems to enjoy all the weather we are having. It has bloomed and now put forth lots of fruit. I have never tasted the fruit but I understand that it is very sour. I have the one plant that was given to me by the neighbor so that I can grow fruit for her. Her three bushes have done well and I usually pick them and take them over to her when they are ripe.

I'm not familiar with this bush but it certainly is healthy. Wishing you two a delightful day.
I've never heard of this fruit before.
My neighbor is part native American. The aronia berry is a wild fruit that grows here in the US. It is blended in with other sweeter things to make it taste good. It has been touted as a health food now by those who do that thing. They have aronia berry workshops and people travel far and near to go buy plants. I am growing the one plant to be a safety net if my neighbors didn't grow. Her three did grow and I give her the fruit from my bush.
