Coralberry (Symphoricarpos orbiculatus)

The Coralberry is a unique, native fruit that produces an abundance of edible berries in shades of coral, orange, and red. Coralberries are prized for their high vitamin C content and their ability to thrive in a variety of soil conditions. They are also relatively pest-free and disease-resistant, making them an easy-to-grow addition to any home garden.

Coralberry is an important food source for many wildlife species, including birds, deer, and small mammals. The dense branching habit of the shrub provides excellent cover for wildlife, and the berries provide a valuable source of food during the winter months.

Coralberry has a long history of use in traditional medicine. The bark and leaves of the plant have been used to treat a variety of ailments, including sore throats, eye infections, and menstrual cramps. Coralberry is also a good source of antioxidants and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties.
