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. Gulliver introduces the King to one of the most powerful tools of warfare, which has the additional benefit of enabling a king to control his own people:
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.
Aroniaâs fall leaf color contrasts with its dark purple, edible berries that persist until late winter when songbirds eat them as a last resort. âMcKenzieâ is a cultivar that was selected for its performance in conservation plantings or windbreak plantings, not for commercial berry production. It was released in 2008.
