Add unique, four-season interest to your landscape with our American Coralberry seeds. This hardy native shrub is celebrated for its clusters of striking, purplish-red berries that encircle the stems in the fall and persist through the winter. The dense, arching branches provide excellent cover for wildlife, and the berries are a valued food source for birds after other foods have disappeared.
