Silver Buffalo Berry vs Wentworth Highbush CranberryShepherdia argentea Viburnum trilobum Wentworth SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
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. Wentworth Highbush Cranberry is an ample producer that will make you think of the perfect cranberry sauce when you see it. Its huge fruit is delectable in jellies and sauces. In the spring it bears clusters of white flowers, contrasted against green vegetation that turns a rich red in the fall. Magnificent in garden borders or mass planting, you’ll appreciate your cranberry on your table and in your yard. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSWENTWORTH HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTS
