Lowbush Cranberry vs Pygmy CaraganaViburnum edule Caragana pygmaea SOLD OUT ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW 
Lowbush Cranberry is a short, deciduous shrub native to North America. Its white flowers bear sour but edible fruit that ripens to a brilliant red in fall. Lowbush Cranberry's small size makes it suitable for urban use; buyers will also find it useful if trying to reclaim land back to its original species or when landscaping with native species in damp conditions.
Pygmy Caragana is a shrub that is related to Common Caragana and has a compact size that is suitable for yards with limited space. Its size is perfect for landscaping and decorative hedges, and requires little maintenance. This nitrogen fixer has fine-textured foliage and small yellow flowers. Much like Common Caragana, it is hardy and drought tolerant. LOWBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSPYGMY CARAGANA QUICK FACTS
