Ground Hug® Chokeberry

Ground Hug® Chokeberry is a low-growing, mat-forming native shrub that does the hard work of a groundcover while delivering year-round beauty. Reaching just 1–2 ft. tall with a 2–3 ft. spread, this prostrate dwarf forms a dense, weed-suppressing carpet of glossy green foliage that transforms into brilliant red and orange in fall. White spring flowers and dark berries make it a wildlife favorite, too.
