Bird feeding shrubs, 40-60 cm high, 4.6 liter pot, set of 3, 1 x chokeberry, 1 x potato rose, 1 x black elderberry "Haidegg"

• Vitamin-rich chokeberry with spherical, edible, glossy black fruits
• Completely site-tolerant chokeberry with cherry-red blossoms, bee-friendly, and with an intense fragrance
• Elderberry with high yields
• Ideal as a bird nesting and feeding site

Unfortunately, natural bird nesting sites are becoming increasingly scarce; with this set of three, you can give the birds back a piece of nature. This set not only provides shelter or nesting sites, but also provides natural food for the birds.

The chokeberry Aron (Aronia melanocarpa Aron) is a new, promising Danish selection with spherical, glossy black edible fruits, whose popularity is spreading from Scandinavia to Germany. It owes its nickname, "vitamin berry," to its high content of health-promoting nutrients that strengthen well-being and the immune system. In spring, umbel-shaped white blossoms adorn the chokeberry; in autumn, this beautiful tree captivates with its magnificent, bright wine-red to dark red color. The sweet-tart fruits are also wonderfully processed into delicious jams and jellies, and liqueur and wine lovers will also find something to enjoy here, provided the birds don't nibble on the fruit first. This tree is also used as a bird deterrent, and not without reason. An eye-catcher in any cottage garden!

The Apple Rose is the right choice for anyone seeking a bee-friendly, robust rose with natural blooms. For months, it adorns itself with pink to violet blossoms in small umbels. They open wide to reveal their golden-yellow stamens, which attract numerous beneficial insects such as bees and bumblebees. Colorful butterflies also flutter around the Red Apple Rose, beautifully enlivening the garden. Not only do these beautiful flowers appear in remarkably abundant numbers, but they also emit a tantalizingly intense fragrance! The Apple Rose not only enriches native greenery as an insect pasture, but also enriches every bed and open space with its fragrance and radiant blossoms. Furthermore, the so-called Potato Rose grows particularly densely and broadly bushy, making it ideal for hedge planting. This makes it a picturesque and flower-rich property border! In autumn, the Red Apple Rose becomes an eye-catcher again: At this time, its foliage glows golden yellow. At the same time, it is adorned with an abundance of bright orange-red rose hips. These can be easily processed into jam or healthy teas. Alternatively, we can leave this wild fruit hanging for our garden birds, who will enjoy this food source after the first frost.

The Black Elderberry "Haidegg" is a very productive elderberry. Thanks to its significantly larger fruit clusters, the yield is almost twice as high as usual. Haidegg is a fast-growing and healthy new variety from Austria. It is very yield-stable and spoils you with a strong fruit flavor.
The plant grows to about 3 meters tall and prefers a sunny to partially shaded location. After the magnificent blooms from June to July, the harvest season begins at the beginning of September.
