Description:
Redwing® American Cranberrybush is a hardy, multi-season shrub known for its vibrant foliage and ornamental berries. In spring, its leaves emerge with a reddish tint before maturing to deep green, followed by clusters of white flowers. By late summer into fall, bright red berries develop and persist into winter, adding long-lasting color and attracting birds. In autumn, the foliage turns brilliant shades of red, creating a striking seasonal display. Its upright, spreading habit makes it ideal for hedging, screening, or naturalized plantings.
Standout Feature:
Brilliant red fall color paired with persistent, showy red berries.
Interesting Fact:
Although called a cranberrybush, the fruit is not a true cranberry—but it is edible and often used in jellies and sauces, similar to traditional cranberries.
