Silver Buffalo Berry vs Staghorn SumacShepherdia argentea Rhus typhina SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
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.
Staghorn Sumac is a popular ornamental shrub with red velvet like antlers that produce seeds that provide nice winter interest for landscapers and gardeners. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSSTAGHORN SUMAC QUICK FACTS
