Coralberry/Buck Brush (Symphoricarpos orbiculatus)

$4.00

8-24" Bare Root Seedling

Coralberry is a medium sized native shrub that occurs in a wide variety of woodland and streambank habitats across the eastern US, but appears to be commonly associated with post oak woodlands.

Bright green leaves turn late in the fall and these shrubs work well in a forest restoration, habitat project, or in your landscape.

Small white flowers appear April-July and the small coral-pink berries often persist through winter. Insects and wildlife enjoy the pollen, nectar, and fruits, but this berry is not recommended for human consumption.

Height: 6 ft
Soils: Well-drained sand, loam, or clay
Water: Moderate drought tolerance
Light: Full sun to shade
Wildlife: Berries are relished by birds and mammals
