Come fall, though, when the pink blossoms turn into nearly fluorescent pink berries, you’ll see why this is the main attraction.
Proud Berry delivers a prolific show when planted in full sun and provided with a touch of pruning in early spring to encourage an abundant display of fruit in fall. Cut some of the berry stems to bring indoors for exceptionally long-lasting, late-season bouquets. The berries are also a good food source for robins and thrushes.
A Proven Winners variety. 'Sofie' PP 21,226 Grown primarily for their berries that last well into winter, Symphoricarpos produce small, nectar-rich, white or pink flowers that are attractive to pollinators.
