I discovered these unbelievably white berries on a bush in my back yard. After some research I found out that they are snowberries. The snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus) is a common, native shrub growing in much of North America. Long after the leaves drop off in the autumn the hearty, white berries remain on the branches, serving as a vital source of food for birds, deer and other animals in the winter months. It would NOT be for human consumption!

I’ve never heard of snowberries, but I love the name! Beautiful photo!
I found your lovely blog while surfing around on my Saturday :) I just took a photo of these white berries and wondered the same thing, thanks for the info. I love how you embellished the shot, especially the graphic swirls.
I don’t see any snow berries growing in my yard. I want to grow them now.
