Silver Buffalo Berry vs Gray DogwoodShepherdia argentea Cornus racemosa COMING SOON COMING SOON 
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.
Gray dogwood is a thicket-forming, deciduous shrub with greenish-white blossoms in open, terminal clusters. Young twigs are red and the fruit pedicels remain conspicuously red into late fall and early winter. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSGRAY DOGWOOD QUICK FACTS
