4. Highbush Cranberry

Scientific Name:
Cranberry Viburnum Viburnum opulus var. americanum (viburnum trilobum)

Common Name:
Highbush Cranberry

This lovely shrub graces several areas on our place. For the most part this is an easy to care for shrub that produces lots of little white flowers earlier in the summer. The berries are supposedly edible but we’ve not ever tried them instead we leave them on the tree as a nature food source for our wildlife in the winter months. We did learn that this is a native plant of Iowa (as well as other areas). I always like finding out that we have native plantings from the previous owners.
