Black chokeberry flowers occur in clusters of 7-12 near the margins of the shrub. Each flower is ~1/2" across with a reddish-green calyx with 5 short triangular lobes, 5 white, spoon-shaped, non-overlapping petals with rounded tips and a narrow base, 16-20 stamens with pink to rose-colored anthers, and 5 pale green styles, fused at their bases. The red glands on the upper leaf midvein and pink to rose-colored stamens are diagnostic of black chokeberry.
