This amazing native groundcover is a beautiful evergreen with dark green foliage that changes to burgundy in the fall. In the spring it blooms lovely pink and white flowers that turn into bright red berries in the summer.
If you see this in the wild be careful. Uva ursi translates literally to “bear grape,” because bears have been known to seek out this tasty little snack.
