Perhaps Swift's most biting element of satire in Part II lies in the interchange between Gulliver and the king about the use of gunpowder and cannons as a tool of political power.

Aronia (pronounced ar-ROH-nee-uh) is one of the common names used for Aronia melanocarpa. It is a perennial, deciduous, self-supporting shrub. Unlike grape vines, aronia does not need trellising. The growth habit of Aronia melanocarpa plants varies greatly. The range of variability extends from ground cover types to tall and leggy shrubs up to 20 feet tall and everything in-between.
How to Plant Aronia Berries. Aronia berries or Choke cherries as they are sometimes called, grown on attractive ornamental plants. The Aronia bush often grows up to six feet or more in height. And a fully mature plant can produce up to 38 pounds of fruit! There is a lot of potential in growing aronia berries. They are very forgiving to growing conditions and can adapt to most soil types.
