Red berries, carved leaves. Only and benefits, that fodder sparrows. The Scots, the British, the Swedes and the Danes will not agree with you. Too many legends, myths and traditions are associated with this tree. It is believed that mountain ash is a descendant of the first sacred tree on Earth.
Rowan was called the "witch tree". Its branches, leaves and berries served as a talisman against the forces of evil. The faith of the Scandinavians in her magical powers was so high that the first missionaries preaching among the Vikings were instructed to combine Christian teaching and pagan rites. Hence the tradition - to carve crosses and staffs of high priests from mountain ash. Erect chapels in rowan groves and plant it in monastery gardens. And some theologians claim that the cross on which Christ was crucified is made of rowan.
According to psychics, the aura of mountain ash is very hard, similar to x-rays, so prolonged proximity to this tree causes discomfort. The energy of the tree cleans the human biofield. It is no coincidence that there is a belief among the people that it is enough to stand under a mountain ash for a while to “expel” the disease.

Interestingly, this holiday - the end of the agricultural year and the day of commemoration of the departed - suggested passing through a rowan hoop as a symbol of purification.

The black chokeberry is a plant of American origin that can generate income of up to 12,000 euros per hectare.
Niche crops have been in high demand lately as farmers look for less cultivated plants to arouse the interest of consumers looking to diversify their diet.
Chokeberry (chokeberry) is a shrub that is easy to grow and cultivate. It grows on a variety of soils, but soils with a pH of 5 to 7 are best suited for chokeberry.
Rowan is considered a very useful product. Small round berries of black or red color are eaten. In aronia, the berries have a pleasant, sweetish taste, while the red berries of the mountain ash (which is a tree) are bitter and tart in taste.
Aronia shrubs are quite hardy and can tolerate frosts down to -30°C, while the roots are resistant to frosts down to -11°C. frost. In any case, in areas with frosty winters, it is better to cover the roots of shrubs with straw to protect the chokeberry from frost.
Like all shrubs grown in agriculture, chokeberry is planted in late autumn or in early spring when there is enough moisture in the soil for the engraftment of the root system. Before planting, 40-60 tons of manure per hectare is applied, after plowing the soil to a depth of 40-50 cm. The bushes are planted at a distance of 1.5-2 meters between plants in a row and 3-4 meters between rows.
After planting aronia, you should take care of irrigating the plantation, since chokeberry is very moisture-loving, unlike, for example, castor beans. The largest need for water chokeberry during the fruiting period, that is, in May and June. If chokeberry is planted in dry areas, then obviously you should buy watering equipment that will provide the plants with much-needed irrigation.
To achieve good fruiting, chokeberry plantations need regular manure fertilization every 3 years.
After planting the plantation, the lower branches are cut off, leaving 4-7 central branches of the shrub. After that, every year you need to leave 4-5 young branches, and the rest of the shoots are removed. Within 6-7 years after planting, the main fruit branches are not removed, only weak, broken or lying on the ground are cut off.
7 years after planting, old branches become less productive. The purpose of pruning is to keep the balance between the shoots different ages(60% young branches and 40% old). If old branches stop bearing fruit, they are pruned. The number of branches in a bush should be about 30-35.
planted plantation
Well-groomed chokeberry plantations can bear fruit for up to 15-20 years.
The fruits of the chokeberry are small, black and reach maturity at the end of August. If the weather is unfavorable, the harvest period can safely be extended by 4-6 weeks, since ripe fruits do not fall from the plant until late autumn.
Chokeberry is a very valuable bio product
To plant one hectare with shrubs, you will need approximately 1250 plants, with a minimum price of 3-4 euros per plant, for a total cost of 7000 euros. The cost is not very high, considering that chokeberry plantations begin to bear fruit after 3 years. Aronia shrubs can be found in nurseries that specialize in the sale of fertile shrubs.
Chokeberry is not very popular in our country, because people are little aware of the real benefits and benefits that this plant brings, and it is extremely difficult to find chokeberry berries for sale. At the same time, in Europe, the demand for chokeberry is very high and the market is completely empty.
