Red chokeberry is native to eastern North America. It is found throughout Maryland's coastal plain. Its habitat is swamps, wet thickets, bogs, fens, margins of freshwater wetlands. Flowers February–May and fruits September–November. Flowers are visited by numerous pollinators, and berries provide food for birds and mammals in late winter. Protect from deer browse.
