Zone 3

Full to Part Sun. This is a very unique and showy shrub that is very hardy to Alberta.  They have dark green, glossy leaves with white flowers in the Spring and edible dark black berries in the fall that are known to have health benefits by Eastern Europeans. The vibrant red and orange fall colour makes it a must for any landscape. It is an easy shrub to keep tidy and is under used in our climate. Tolerates a variety of soil conditions and erosion (great on a hillside or slope). Could be used as an alternative to cotoneaster if you were looking to create a little more diversity in the landscape.
