Description
English:

tall, thin plant with small red berries

Highbush cranberry can stand more than 4 feet tall. The leaves are variable, toothed, and oval to rounded. In the spring it has very small white to pinkish flowers, which ripen into berries in August and September. The berries are translucent red with a large flat seed inside.The berries are sour, but when mixed with plenty of sugar make a tasty jelly or syrup. High in vitamin C, highbush cranberry tea is a traditional cold remedy. Highbush cranberry often grows near Baneberry, a plant with a similar, but deadly poisonous, berry. The two plants can be distinguished by the location of the berries: the berries on a highbush cranberry plant are found singly or in clusters above the leaves. There will be multiple berry clusters per bush. Baneberries grow on a single central stalk in only one location on the plant, much like flowers on tall fireweed. If you are unsure of the difference, don't take chances.
