Common Snowberry vs Silver Buffalo BerrySymphoricarpos albus Shepherdia argentea 
Common Snowberry is a small deciduous shrub with characteristic white to pink flowers and clusters of white fruit.
Silver Buffalo Berry is a cold hardy, ornamental shrub that is commonly used in the first row of shelterbelts instead of caragana or lilac. It features subtle yellow flowers, smooth grey bark, and red fruit. On occasion orange fruit is produced and rarely a yellow fruit. Please note: we regularly collect the rare yellow and orange fruit to use for our seed source. COMMON SNOWBERRY QUICK FACTSSILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTS
