Symphoricarpos occidentalis (Western Snowberry)

Please Note: Plug orders being shipped have a minimum order requirement of 8 plugs. As the Trees & Shrubs will be coming from Wright Nurseries in central Alberta and the Wildflowers, Grasses & Vines from Wild About Flowers by Okotoks, AB, both categories have a minimum order of 8 plugs for plug orders being shipped.

Description: Low shrub up to 1m tall that can extend to form dense thickets. Leaves are an attractive blueish green and look great when contrasted with other plantings. Petite pinkish white flowers bloom in spring and give way to clusters of small white berries that darken after frost and persist through winter.

Notes: Prefers to grow in hot, dry and sunny conditions but will perform adequately in shade or areas with increased moisture.

Important Information: The "Bloom Period" is an indicator of the time period within which the wildflowers will bloom and does not describe the time period that a single plant will bloom. The "Sizes" listed are intended to be a general guideline to consult during plant selection. Plant growth and bloom times will vary depending on geographical location & individual site conditions.
