Gaultheria procumbens 'Cherry Berries'

Nature's wintergreen lifesavers! This new cultivar is loaded with very large, nickel-size, showy red, tasty berries. The berries can be made into tea, eaten raw, mixed into fresh fruit salad or used in a refreshing ice cream. The leaves can be used as a minty tea. Both leaves and fruit taste like wintergreen lifesavers.

Self-fertile wintergreen ripens berries in waves, starting in late summer until late winter. They are a creeping native of the eastern United States and will spread outward 12 inches or more. Plant 12 inches apart, in partial or full shade. Needs a loose, acidic soil with high organic matter content. It grows to about 6 inches tall and makes a great edible evergreen groundcover. Hardy in USDA Zones 3-9.

Size: 1 Qt Pot

Winter berries!

Well I am just in love with these small bushes. I am now on my 4th multi-plant order for these. Not only do they look cute, with dark glossy leaves, the leaves and the berries are a trip when you taste them. It’s like root beer concentrate in your mouth - at least to me - and nice breath thereafter. I gifted a few to family and they just love them too. Of course they look fabulous among the rocks by my small retaining wall too.
