The bright-red new growth in spring on this select Huckleberry is a real treat, especially when these are planted en masse; selected from the native evergreen Huckleberry for brighter spring color and more compact growth; the leaves mature to dark-green on this fine 3' x 3' shrublet and springs tiny white flowers become tasty dark-blue fruit in August. This is an outstanding and nearly maintenance free plant for the edible landscape. S-PSH/M
