Black chokeberry is a native shrub commonly used in wildlife habitat plantings, riparian buffers, and other conservation projects. Adaptable to a range of growing conditions, it performs well on moist sites but will also tolerate drier soils and partial shade. Its fruit serves as an important food source for birds and other wildlife, while its spring flowers provide nectar and pollen for pollinators.
