‘UCONNAM165′ LOW SCAPE MOUND is a compact, low-growing selection of black chokeberry with a dense, mound-forming habit. The foliage is glossy and deep green in summer, with red and orange fall coloration. Small flowers with white petals and contrasting red-purple anthers appear in clusters (up to 1″ in diameter) in mid-spring. Mature plants only reach up to 2′ tall and spread to fill a 4’ area.
