Galicjanka Aronia Berry Bareroot

Species: Aronia melanocarpa

History: Galicjanka was developed in Poland where Aronia berries are a common agricultural crop. It is one of the most popular varieties grown there due to its suitability for commercial plantations.

Why We Grow It: This variety produces large berries with good flavour. Despite its popularity in Poland, it is unfortunately not very common in North America.
