Lowbush Cranberry vs Black HawthornViburnum edule Crataegus douglasii SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
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.
Black Hawthorn is a versatile plant that is native to wetlands and other areas with moist soils, but can also tolerate dry soils. This plant can be grown as a short shrub, or a tree reaching 30 feet tall. LOWBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSBLACK HAWTHORN QUICK FACTS
