Symphoricarpos Magical® Joy

Plump white fruits, dusted pink give the plant a magical glow.

Magical®️ Joy is a well-branched, upright snowberry with plump white berries that cluster along the stems and have a lovely dusting of rose-pink, giving them a frosted look. Snowberries add interest to the garden at a time when most perennials and shrubs have finished their performance. Plant in groupings or use as a stand-alone specimen where needed. The white fruits will light up a garden path and make a nice addition when taking an evening stroll.
