Highbush Cranberry vs Northern BayberryViburnum trilobum Myrica pensylvanica SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
Highbush Cranberry produces attractive white flowers in late June and bears edible fruit that matures to a bright red colour in the late summer.
Northern Bayberry makes an excellent hedge or feature shrub. It will retain its leaves in warmer climates but drops them in colder areas. They produce blue-grey berries that have a wax coating on them that can be used to make candles or soaps. HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSNORTHERN BAYBERRY QUICK FACTS
