Native plants don't always have the most glamorous common names, but “Snowberry” is an excellent description of the display that Symphoricarpos puts on at the end of summer. Small, pinkish, bell-like flowers in spring turn into interesting fruit as summer moves into fall, and eventually provide an important late-season meal for wildlife.
Generally, the bigger the number, the bigger the price, the bigger the plant.
Plants with a number sign (#) followed by a number are roughly equivalent to gallon pot sizes (i.e. #2 = 2 gallon, #3 = 3 gallon and so on). These plants are sold in containers.
Plants with a height (i.e. 5-6') indicate an estimate of the current height of the plant.
Plants measured in inches (i.e. 2.5") indicate the caliper (trunk width) of the plant.
Plants measured by caliper (inches) are generally larger than plants measured in height (feet).
Plants with B&B in the size are sold as balled and burlap (not in a container).
