A chokeberry growing out in the front yard. It will bear red or black fruit that's rich in antioxidants. The purple variety has one of the highest concentrations of antioxidants in the plant kingdom, next only to blueberries and other purple/dark blue coloured fruit and vegetables (purple carrots make the grade too). So the next time you're shopping for fresh produce go for the blue!
Good desc here.
