Leaves of black mountain ash
The leaves of the chokeberry are shaped like cherry leaves. In the upper part, they are sawn along the edge, above – matte-green, and below-grayish. In autumn, they acquire a red or reddish-purple color, which gives the plant an elegant appearance.
For medicinal purposes, dried aronia leaves (in the form of an infusion) are used for bleeding, hypertension and allergic reactions on the skin.
