Narrative
Accession is uniform with slightly below average vigor and an open, somewhat upright growth habit. Originally received as A. arbutifolia, but later identified as A. melanocarpa. Fruits are black and tend to mature in late September/early October (central Iowa). This is quite late for A. melanocarpa and may likely represent a black fruited form of A. prunifolia.
