This relative of the (dog)rose deserves more attention! Consider its ornamental value: beautiful blossoms (resembling apple blossoms), sturdy dark green leaves that turn red for a long time in autumn, a compact growth habit, and shade and moisture resistance, making it suitable for planting under trees or along a pond. After flowering, black berries grow, which make a delicious juice or jam!
