Symphoricarpos × doorenbosii 'Magic Berry'
Snowberry
This is the perfect shrub if you want maximum impact with the minimum amount of fuss! It will flourish in most soils and requires very little maintenance, but in autumn, it will put on a dazzling display when the violet-pink berries fatten up and start to weigh down the gently arching branches. It's also popular with the bees, as although they are not particularly showy, the late summer flowers are rich in nectar.
How to care for Symphoricarpos × doorenbosii Magic Berry:
In February or March remove any misplaced or crossing branches to maintain a permanent, healthy framework. Maintain species grown as informal, flowering hedges by cutting back the flowered shoots immediately after flowering to strong buds or young lower growth.
