Appears to be a pome, so I'd look at Rosaceae and specifically Crataegus... lots of 'em in Tennessee. According to USDA Plants, there are: C. arborea, austromontana, calpodendron, crus-galli, disperma, engelmannii, flabellata, flava, harbisonii, helvina, inanis, intricata, iracunda, macrosperma, margarettiae, marshallii, mollis, monogyna, nitida, penita, phaenopyrum, pinetorum, pruinosa, punctata, ravida, rhodella, ringens, sargentii, schuettei, spathulata, succulenta, tinctoria, triflora, vailiae, viridis, vulsa. Chances are most can be discounted pretty quickly. |
Based on the fruit, the leaf shape and venation, and the apparent lack of thorns, I'd guess Red Chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia) http://plants.usda.gov/core/pr... |

The first thing that came to my mind was Photinia pyrifolia, also commonly called Red Chokeberry and I see it also listed here as Aronia arbutifolia with P. pyrifolia in parentheses so maybe it's one and the same?: http://www.wetland.org/plant%2... We have an entry in the ATP database with no info so maybe it should be deleted if they are one and the same plant?
