Common Snowberry vs Lowbush BlueberrySymphoricarpos albus Vaccinium angustifolium SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Common Snowberry is a small deciduous shrub with characteristic white to pink flowers and clusters of white fruit.
Lowbush Blueberry, commonly known as the Wild Lowbush Blueberry, is often wild-harvested and thrives in low pH acidic soil. This early low-bush blueberry produces white and pink bell-shaped flowers in the spring. Its fruit is smaller in size than high bush blueberry plants and is more flavourful with an intense blueberry taste-masking it perfect for fresh eating, baking, and preserves.
