<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> </head> <body> <h2>Jostaberry Seeds (Ribes × nidigrolaria)</h2> <h2>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</h2> The jostaberry (Ribes × nidigrolaria) is a complex-cross fruit bush in the genus Ribes, involving three original species, the black currant R. nigrum, the North American coastal black gooseberry R. divaricatum, and the European gooseberry R. uva-crispa.[1] It is similar to Ribes × culverwellii, the Jochelbeere, which is descended from just two of these species, R. nigrum and R. uva-crispa. <h2>Taxonomy</h2> There was a demand to have gooseberry-type fruits on thornless plants, and the first successful attempt to cross blackcurrant (R. nigrum) with European gooseberry (R. uva-crispa) was carried out by Culverwell[clarification needed] in Yorkshire, England in 1880.[3] This hybrid was termed Ribes × culverwellii and was nearly sterile.[4] Others later carried out direct crosses between blackcurrant and gooseberry, however the diploid seedlings created were sterile and did not produce much fruit, although some fruit was set without fertilization (parthenocarpy). Jostaberry is frequently mistakenly termed Ribes × culverwelli as a result of this early F1 diploid hybrid.[4] However, Jostaberry is a F2 fertile amphipolyploid hybrid of complex parentage, not a direct cross, and was created later in Germany.[4] Paul Lorenz started the process in the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Berlin in 1926. In 13 years, over 1000 F1 hybrids were created. Only eight of these survived World War II, and were eventually moved to the Erwin Baeur Institute, which was founded in 1946.[3] Randolph Baeur used colchicine to double the number of chromosomes and produce fertile tetraploids.[5][3] Backcrossing with gooseberry and blackcurrant parents was also involved, creating a new F2 generation. Of 15,000 such crosses, three seedlings were selected based on vigor, disease resistance and fertility.[3] Therefore, jostaberry is descended from two separate first-generation crosses, both of which produced very few fruit.[5] One of the F1 hybrids used was a cross between the blackcurrant cultivar R. nigrum ‘Langtraubige Schwarze’ (‘Long Bunch’) with R. divaricatum (also termed spreading gooseberry, Worcesterberry, coastal black gooseberry or by other names). This F1 hybrid was resitant to American gooseberry mildew. The other F1 hybrid parent was a cross between the blackcurrant cultivar R. nigrum "Silvergieters Schwarze" with R. grossularia (syn. R. uva-crispa) ‘Grune Hansa’.[3] The name Jostaberry was created by combining the German words for blackcurrant and gooseberry, namely Johannisbeere ("Jo") and Stachelbeere ("Sta"). Following German pronunciation of "J", it may be pronounced "yostaberry" in English. The first cultivar, ‘Josta’ was made available to the public in 1977. Two later cultivars released were called ‘Jostine’ and ‘Jogranda’.[3] A number of varieties have been developed since then by various developers. Named cultivars tend to only be available in Germany,[6] and the names of the three most common jostaberry cultivars have also been confused, and all have sometimes been sold as ‘Josta’.[3] <h2>Description</h2> The nearly black berry, which is smaller than a gooseberry and a bit larger than a blackcurrant, is edible both raw and cooked. It is described as having a taste intermediate between a gooseberry and a blackcurrant, with the gooseberry flavor more dominant in the unripe fruit, and the blackcurrant notes developing as the fruit ripens. The ripe fruit will hang on the bush in good condition through late summer, but is very popular with birds. The somewhat unripe fruit can be used in cooking recipes as a gooseberry. Like blackcurrants the fruit freezes well, and like many other members of the genus Ribes it is rich in vitamin C. Commercial production of jostaberries is limited because they are not well suited to mechanical harvesting. Compared to most other fruits, harvesting jostaberries is relatively labor-intensive per kilogram. Although harder to pluck than blackcurrants, the plant is thornless. The plant itself grows to a maximum height of about 2 m, flowering in mid-spring, with fruit setting and ripening on a similar timetable to the blackcurrant. The plant displays hybrid vigor, growing and fruiting well and being resistant to a number of common diseases afflicting other Ribes. In particular the plant is resistant to American gooseberry mildew, blackcurrant leaf spot, white pine blister rust, and big bud gall mite. Flowers are hermaphrodite and the plant is self-fertile following insect pollination. </body> </html>

<h2>Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)</h2> <h2>Price for Package of 10 (2,5g) seeds.</h2> This cherry variety originally comes from Serbia and is over 120 years old. The fruits are extremely large (almost as big as cherries), dark-red in color, and very sweet. The tree reaches a height of approx. 4 meters and a diameter of approx. 2 to 3 meters. The variety is extremely fertile and can deliver over 50 kilograms of cherries in season. This variety withstood temperatures of - 30 degrees Celsius. However, it is believed that it can easily withstand -40 an more degrees Celsius. It is resistant to diseases and there is no need to use chemical preparations. <h3>You can read more about cherries on Wikipedia:</h3> Prunus cerasus (sour cherry,[3] tart cherry, or dwarf cherry[4]) is a species of Prunus in the subgenus Cerasus (cherries), native to much of Europe and southwest Asia. It is closely related to the sweet cherry (Prunus avium), but has a fruit that is more acidic. Its sour pulp is edible.[5] The tree is smaller than the sweet cherry (growing to a height of 4–10 m), has twiggy branches, and its crimson-to-near-black cherries are borne upon shorter stalks.[citation needed] There are two main varieties (groups of cultivars) of the sour cherry: the dark-red morello cherry and the lighter-red amarelle cherry. <h2>Origins and cultivation</h2> <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e4/Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg/220px-Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="359" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e4/Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg/330px-Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e4/Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg/440px-Illustration_Prunus_cerasus0.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1462" data-file-height="2388" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> Illustration of Morello Cherry</div> </div> </div> Prunus cerasus, a tetraploid with 2n=32 chromosomes, is thought to have originated as a natural hybrid between Prunus avium and Prunus fruticosa in the Iranian Plateau or Eastern Europe where the two species come into contact. Prunus fruticosa is believed to have provided its smaller size and sour tasting fruit. The hybrids then stabilised and interbred to form a new, distinct species.[7] Cultivated sour cherries were selected from wild specimens of Prunus cerasus and the doubtfully distinct P. acida from around the Caspian and Black Seas, and were known to the Greeks in 300 BC. They were also extremely popular with Persians and the Romans who introduced them into Britain long before the 1st century AD. The fruit remains popular in modern-day Iran. In England, their cultivation was popularised in the 16th century in the time of Henry VIII. They became a popular crop amongst Kentish growers, and by 1640 over two dozen named cultivars were recorded. In the Americas, by 1704 the Vestry of New Kent County, Virginia recorded "The DePriest of Kent" planted 354 acres of Prunus cerasus along the Pamunkey River as the 'Kent' variety, that spawned other Virginia colonists throughout Richmond to plant sour cherry trees, 'Early Richmond' variety or 'Kentish Red', when they arrived.[8] <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg/220px-Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="166" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg/330px-Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg/440px-Fr%C3%BChling_bl%C3%BChender_Kirschenbaum.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2272" data-file-height="1712" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> A blooming sour cherry tree</div> </div> </div> Before the Second World War there were more than fifty cultivars of sour cherry in cultivation in England; today, however, few are grown commercially, and despite the continuation of named cultivars such as 'Kentish Red', 'Amarelles', 'Griottes' and 'Flemish', only the generic Morello is offered by most nurseries. This is a late-flowering variety, and thus misses more frosts than its sweet counterpart and is therefore a more reliable cropper. The Morello cherry ripens in mid to late summer, toward the end of August in southern England. It is self-fertile, and would be a good pollenizer for other varieties if it did not flower so late in the season. <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/SourcherryYield.png/220px-SourcherryYield.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="132" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/SourcherryYield.png/330px-SourcherryYield.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/SourcherryYield.png/440px-SourcherryYield.png 2x" data-file-width="1600" data-file-height="960" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> Worldwide sour cherry production</div> </div> </div> Sour cherries require similar cultivation conditions to pears, that is, they prefer a rich, well-drained, moist soil, although they demand more nitrogen and water than sweet cherries. Trees will do badly if waterlogged, but have greater tolerance of poor drainage than sweet varieties. As with sweet cherries, Morellos are traditionally cultivated by budding onto strong growing rootstocks, which produce trees too large for most gardens, although newer dwarfing rootstocks such as Colt and Gisella are now available. During spring, flowers should be protected, and trees weeded, mulched and sprayed with natural seaweed solution. This is also the time when any required pruning should be carried out (note that cherries should not be pruned during the dormant winter months). Morello cherry trees fruit on younger wood than sweet varieties, and thus can be pruned harder. They are usually grown as standards, but can be fan trained, cropping well even on cold walls, or grown as low bushes.[9] <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Ripe_sour_cherries_on_a_branch.jpg/220px-Ripe_sour_cherries_on_a_branch.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="161" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Ripe_sour_cherries_on_a_branch.jpg/330px-Ripe_sour_cherries_on_a_branch.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Ripe_sour_cherries_on_a_branch.jpg 2x" data-file-width="430" data-file-height="314" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> Ripe sour cherries (Somogy, Hungary)</div> </div> </div> <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Black_Che.jpg/220px-Black_Che.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="163" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Black_Che.jpg/330px-Black_Che.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Black_Che.jpg/440px-Black_Che.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2944" data-file-height="2184" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> Ripe sour cherries and their leaves (Karaj, Iran)</div> </div> </div> <div class="thumb tright"> <div class="thumbinner"><img alt="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg/220px-Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="220" class="thumbimage" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg/330px-Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg/440px-Owoce_Wi%C5%9Bnia.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="1024" title="Serbian morello cherry seeds (Prunus cerasus)" /> <div class="thumbcaption"> <div class="magnify"></div> A sour cherry Beauty Sheet</div> </div> </div> Sour cherries suffer fewer pests and diseases than sweet cherries, although they are prone to heavy fruit losses from birds. In summer, fruit should be protected with netting. When harvesting fruit, they should be cut from the tree rather than risking damage by pulling the stalks. Unlike most sweet cherry varieties, sour cherries are self fertile or self pollenizing (sometimes inaccurately referred to as self-pollinating). Two implications of this are that seeds generally run true to the cultivar, and that much smaller pollinator populations are needed because pollen only has to be moved within individual flowers. In areas where pollinators are scarce, growers find that stocking beehives in orchards improves yields.[10] Some cultivars of sour cherry trees, such as Montmorency and North Star, have been documented to perform better than other cherry trees in Colorado's Front Range region.[11][12] <table class="wikitable"> <tbody> <tr> <th colspan="5">Top 10 sour cherry producers in 2012</th> </tr>

It is a lush tree, bears abundant fruit, and blooms twice.The white fig ripens in late July and early September, and the ripening period is short (one month).Spring bloom from degenerated female flowers, fleshy and grows to normal size, but never edible. The summer inflorescence develops an edible fruit, elongated by a short neck, and can reach a weight of over 150 g.The fruits are of good quality, suitable for transport and consumption in fresh condition and drying. The flesh is light white under the skin and pale honey on the inside, very juicy, pleasantly sweet.White fig very widespread in the Neretva valley in southern and central Dalmatia.The fruits have great dietary and nutritional value, and medicinal for stomach diseases, anemia, etc.White fig is consumed fresh, dry, like jam, sweet, compote, jelly, and juice.Due to its nutritional composition and medicinal properties, the fig tree rises above many types of fruit. We all already know that it is proven to erase wrinkles and rejuvenate, and we also know that the fig or fig leaf used to be the first clothing a long time ago.Fig fruits are very nutritious and of high dietary therapeutic value. They are especially in demand in the fresh state during the tourist season, but also processed differently during the year, mostly as dried fruits (dried figs).

<h2>Giant Bosnian Plum Seeds (Prunus domestica)</h2> <h2>Price for Package of 5 (6,5g) seeds.</h2> This variety is from Bosnia, and very resistant to diseases. We came across this plum by chance at a farmer's yard and were immediately amazed by both the size and taste of this variety. Unfortunately, the owner did not know what the name of the variety was, he only knew how to tell us that this plum variety was planted by his great-grandfather and that since then this plum has been kept and planted regularly so that this variety spreads and preserves as much as possible. We asked him how this plum tolerates winter and low temperatures, and he answered that the temperature in their village drops to minus 24 degrees Celsius, and this was no problem for this plum. The fruits are really huge and weigh an average of 70 to 85 grams per fruit. A plum is a fruit of the subgenus Prunus of the genus Prunus. The subgenus is distinguished from other subgenera (peaches, cherries, bird cherries, etc.) in the shoots having terminal bud and solitary side buds (not clustered), the flowers in groups of one to five together on short stems, and the fruit having a groove running down one side and a smooth stone (or pit). Mature plum fruit may have a dusty-white waxy coating that gives them a glaucous appearance. This is an epicuticular wax coating and is known as "wax bloom". Dried plum fruits are called dried plums or prunes, although, in American English, prunes are a distinct type of plum, and may have pre-dated the fruits now commonly known as plums. Typically it forms a large shrub or a small tree. It may be somewhat thorny, with white blossom, borne in early spring. The oval or spherical fruit varies in size, but can be up to 8 cm across, and is usually sweet (dessert plum), though some varieties are sour and require cooking with sugar to make them palatable. Like all Prunus fruits, it contains a single large seed, usually called a stone, which is discarded when eating. Plums are grown commercially in orchards, but modern rootstocks, together with self-fertile strains, training and pruning methods, allow single plums to be grown in relatively small spaces. Their early flowering and fruiting means that they require a sheltered spot away from frosts and cold winds. Cultivation and uses The taste of the plum fruit ranges from sweet to tart; the skin itself may be particularly tart. It is juicy and can be eaten fresh or used in jam-making or other recipes. Plum juice can be fermented into plum wine. In central England, a cider-like alcoholic beverage known as plum jerkum is made from plums. Dried plums (or prunes) are also sweet and juicy and contain several antioxidants. Plums and prunes are known for their laxative effect. This effect has been attributed to various compounds present in the fruits, such as dietary fiber, sorbitol,[7] and isatin.[8] Prunes and prune juice are often used to help regulate the functioning of the digestive system. Dried prune marketers in the US have, in recent years, begun marketing their product as "dried plums". This is due to "prune" having negative connotations connected with elderly people suffering from constipation. Dried, salted plums are used as a snack, sometimes known as saladito or salao. Various flavors of dried plum are available at Chinese grocers and specialty stores worldwide. They tend to be much drier than the standard prune. Cream, ginseng, spicy, and salty are among the common varieties. Licorice is generally used to intensify the flavor of these plums and is used to make salty plum drinks and toppings for shaved ice or baobing. Pickled plums are another type of preserve available in Asia and international specialty stores. The Japanese variety, called umeboshi, is often used for rice balls, called onigiri or omusubi. The ume, from which umeboshi are made, is more closely related, however, to the apricot than to the plum. As with many other members of the rose family, plum seeds contain cyanogenic glycosides, including amygdalin.[10] These substances are capable of decomposing into a sugar molecule and hydrogen cyanide gas. While plum seeds are not the most toxic within the rose family (the bitter almond is the most toxic[citation needed]), large doses of these chemicals from any source are hazardous to human health. On the other hand, plums are considered a source of phytochemical compounds with beneficial effects on health. Prune kernel oil is made from the fleshy inner part of the pit of the plum. Plums come in a wide variety of colours and sizes. Some are much firmer-fleshed than others, and some have yellow, white, green or red flesh, with equally varying skin colour. Though not available commercially, the wood of plum trees is used by hobbyists and other private woodworkers for musical instruments, knife handles, inlays, and similar small projects. When it flowers in the early spring, a plum tree will be covered in blossoms, and in a good year approximately 50% of the flowers will be pollinated and become plums. Flowering starts after 80 growing degree days. If the weather is too dry, the plums will not develop past a certain stage, but will fall from the tree while still tiny, green buds, and if it is unseasonably wet or if the plums are not harvested as soon as they are ripe, the fruit may develop a fungal condition called brown rot. Brown rot is not toxic, and very small affected areas can be cut out of the fruit, but unless the rot is caught immediately, the fruit will no longer be edible. Plum is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera, including November moth, willow beauty and short-cloaked moth. The Serbian plum (Serbian: шљива / šljiva) is the third most produced in the world. In the Balkans, plum is converted into an alcoholic drink named slivovitz (plum brandy) (Serbian: шљивовица / šljivovica). A large number of plums, of the Damson variety, are also grown in Hungary, where they are called szilva and are used to make lekvar (a plum paste jam), palinka (traditional fruit brandy), plum dumplings, and other foods. The region of Szabolcs-Szatmár, in the northeastern part of the country near the borders with Ukraine and Romania, is a major producer of plums. The plum blossom or meihua (Chinese: 梅花; pinyin: méihuā), along with the peony, are considered traditional floral emblems of China. The plum is commonly used in China, Yunnan area, to produce a local plum wine with a smooth, sweet, fruity taste and approximately 12% alcohol by volume.  <script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>

It typically grows on dry to moist sandy and gravel soils in steppes, meadows or woodland edges. These plants are shrubs or small trees growing to 1–4 m tall. The leaves are broad lanceolate, 2–7 cm long, silvery on both sides with dense small white scales. The fragrant flowers are yellow, with a four-lobed corolla 6–14 mm long. The fruits are ovoid drupes 9–12 mm long, also covered in silvery scales. The fruit pulp is floury in texture and surrounds the single seed. The species is cultivated as an ornamental plant for its silvery foliage. Both the fruit and seeds of this plant are edible either cooked or raw. The fruit is very astringent unless it is fully ripe. The fruit is a very rich source of vitamins and minerals especially A, C, and E. As well it is a fairly good source of essential fatty acids. These fats are rarely found in fruits. This plant, like legumes, is able to fix nitrogen. When grown in orchards as a companion plant, it has been documented to increase fruit production by ten percent. Traditionally the fibrous bark of this tree has been twisted to make strong ropes and woven into clothing and blankets Sharp-tailed grouse and songbirds eat the fruits. This plant is a food source for sharp-tailed grouse in the winter. Silverberry is an important food for wildlife and it provides over one-quarter of the diet for moose during winter in Montana. It also provides food for deer and elk. It provides cover and nesting sites for mallards and many passerine birds in North Dakota "In rough fescue grasslands, silverberry at 1,000 stems per acre increases forage production." </body> </html>

<h2>1000 Seeds Chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa)</h2> <h2>Price for Package of 1000 seeds.</h2> Aronia melanocarpa is an extraordinary medicine plant that has been developed in Poland. It has an incredible array of health qualities. Known as Chokeberry, the native Americans used it to prepare pemmican (dried meat). It has a higher concentration of vitamin C than blackcurrants, but it also contains a host of other valuable substances, especially antioxidants, polyphenols, bioflavonoids, and tannins. It is a very hardy and vigorous plant and can survive most conditions. <h3>Wikipedia:</h3> Aronia is a genus of deciduous shrubs, the chokeberries, in the family Rosaceae native to eastern North America and most commonly found in wet woods and swamps. The genus is usually considered to contain two or three species, one of which is naturalized in Europe. Chokeberries are cultivated as ornamental plants and as food products. The sour berries, or Aronia berries, can be eaten raw off the bush, but are more frequently processed. They can be found in wine, jam, syrup, juice, soft spreads, tea, salsa, chili starters, extracts, beer, ice cream, gummies, and tinctures. The name "chokeberry" comes from the astringency of the fruits, which creates the sensation of making one's mouth pucker. Chokeberries are often mistakenly called chokecherries, the common name for Prunus virginiana. Further adding to the ambiguity, a variety of Prunus virginiana is melanocarpa,[9] and readily confused with black chokeberry because it is commonly referred to as "black chokeberry" or "aronia". Aronia berries and chokecherries both contain polyphenolic compounds, such as anthocyanins, yet the two plants are distantly related within the family Rosaceae. The leaves are alternate, simple, and oblanceolate with crenate margins and pinnate venation; in autumn the leaves turn a bold red color. Dark trichomes are present on the upper midrib surface. The flowers are small, with 5 petals and 5 sepals, and produced in corymbs of 10–25 together. Hypanthium is urn-shaped. The fruit is a small pome, with an astringent flavor. Aronia has been thought to be closely related to Photinia, and has been included in that genus in some classifications,[10] but botanist Cornelis Kalkman observed that a combined genus should be under the older name Aronia.[11] The combined genus contains about 65 species.[12] In 2004, Kalkman expressed doubt about the monophyly of the combined group, and new molecular studies confirm this.[13][14] They do not place these two genera together or even near one another. In eastern North America are two well-known species, named after their fruit color, red chokeberry and black chokeberry, plus a purple chokeberry whose origin is a natural hybrid of the two.[12] A fourth species, Aronia mitschurinii, that apparently originated in cultivation, is also known as Sorbaronia mitschurinii. <h2>Cultivation</h2> Aronia is considered cold hardy and heat tolerant in USDA Zones 3 to 8.[17][18] Aronia plants grow well both in orchard-type rows or set as landscape elements, including several varieties in 3 to 12 foot heights.[17] <h3>Products and uses</h3> The chokeberries are attractive ornamental plants for gardens. They are naturally understory and woodland edge plants, and grow well when planted under trees. Chokeberries are resistant to drought, insects, pollution, and disease. A number of cultivars, including A. arbutifolia 'Brilliant' and A. melanocarpa 'Autumn magic', have been selected for their striking fall leaf color. An aronia wine is made in Lithuania. In Poland, aronia berries are added to jams and juices or dried to make a herbal tea sometimes blended with other ingredients, such as blackcurrant.[19] In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the berries are sold fresh and frozen or made into juices, jams and teas.[20] Aronia is also used as a flavoring or colorant for beverages or yogurts.[19] Juice from the ripe berries is astringent, semi-sweet (moderate sugar content), sour (low pH), and contains a low level of vitamin C.[21] The berries have a tart flavor and, in addition to juice, can be baked into breads.[19] In the United States and Canada, aronia juice concentrate is used in manufactured juice blends. <h3>Polyphenol content</h3> Aronia melanocarpa (black chokeberry) has attracted scientific interest due to its deep purple, almost black pigmentation that arises from dense contents of polyphenols, especially anthocyanins. Total polyphenol content is 1752 mg per 100 g dry weight,[22] anthocyanin content is 1480 mg per 100 g dry weight, and proanthocyanidin concentration is 664 mg per 100 g fresh weight.[23][24] These values are among the highest measured in plants to date. The black aronia species contains higher levels of anthocyanins than purple (Aronia prunifolia) or red aronia (Aronia arbutifolia), whereas red and purple aronia are richer in phenolic acid and proanthocyanins.[25] The plant produces these pigments mainly in the leaves and skin of the berries to protect the pulp and seeds from constant exposure to ultraviolet radiation and production of free radicals.[26][27][28] By absorbing UV rays in the blue-purple spectrum, leaf and skin pigments filter intense sunlight, serve antioxidant functions and thereby have a role assuring regeneration of the species. Brightly colorful pigmentation also attracts birds and other animals to consume the fruit and disperse the seeds in their droppings.[26][29] Analysis of polyphenols in chokeberries has identified the following individual chemicals (among hundreds known to exist in the plant kingdom): cyanidin-3-galactoside, cyanidin-3-arabinoside, quercetin-3-glycoside, epicatechin, caffeic acid, delphinidin, petunidin, pelargonidin, peonidin, and malvidin.[23][25][30] All these except caffeic acid are members of the flavonoid category of phenolics. For reference to phenolics, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and similar plant-derived phytochemicals,[22] Wikipedia has a list of phytochemicals and foods in which they are prominent. <div> <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top" width="100%"> Sowing Instructions </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Propagation: </td> <td valign="top"> Seeds </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Pretreat: </td> <td valign="top"> soak in water for 8- 12 hours  </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Stratification: </td> <td valign="top"> 1 months in moist sowing mix at 2-5 ° C refrigerator </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Sowing Time: </td> <td valign="top"> all year round </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Sowing Depth: </td> <td valign="top"> 1 cm </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Sowing Mix: </td> <td valign="top"> Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Germination temperature: </td> <td valign="top"> 20 ° C </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Location: </td> <td valign="top"> bright + keep constantly moist not wet </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Germination Time: </td> <td valign="top"> 2-8 weeks </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> Watering: </td> <td valign="top"> Water regularly during the growing season </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">   </td> <td valign="top"> Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena. All Rights Reserved. </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <div> <div style="text-align: center;">Genus: Aronia</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Species: melanocarpa</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Common Name: Black Chokeberry</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Other Name: Chokeberry, Gueles Noires</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Pre-treatment: required</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Zone Hardiness Cold: 3</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Zone Hardiness warm: 8</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Plant Type: Small Shrub</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Growth rate: medium</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Vegetation type: deciduous</div> <div style="text-align: center;">Leaf /Flower color: Green/White</div> </div><script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>
