Field Notes

Description:

Bushy shrub, usually to no more than 10ft. Can spread to 10-15ft. The lemonade berry can be trained as a hedge. Pretty white-pink flowers are borne in large clumps all across the plant in the spring. They are followed a few months later by the oblong berries, which ripen from green to yellow, then red. The berries are covered in a sticky substance.

Habitat:

Plants are very tolerant of drought and can survive near-desert conditions. Water is needed only occasionally.
