Symphoricarpos Magical® Pride
Perfectly pink, plump fruits
Snowberries add interest to the garden at a time when most perennials and shrubs are exhibiting a tired look, and as an added bonus, they make excellent cuts for floral arrangements. Magical® Pride is a well-branched, upright form with plump, dark-pink berries that cluster along the stems. Plant in groupings or use as a stand-alone specimen where needed. With these improved varieties from Plants Nouveau, newfound uses for snowberries abound for natural shrub borders and late-season interest. Plant in irregular groupings or as an informal hedge for a readily available supply of cut stems for floral arrangements in late summer and early fall.
