The Sugarberry tree, known and adored for its sweet fruits, is a very adaptable and easy-to-grow native tree with both high ornamental and wildlife value. The edible, deliciously sweet fruits it produces are edible by humans and wildlife. The fruits persist on the tree late into the winter months providing a source of food for many species of birds, including flickers, cardinals, cedar waxwings, brown thrashers, and robins, at a time when there might not be much else around for them to eat. And, as mentioned, you can eat them too! The fruits taste very sweet, hence the name. The attractive green leaves are alternate, 2 to 4 inches long, and have strongly uneven bases. Another interesting feature is the warty texture of the mature grey bark. Adaptable to average to wet soils, and growing up to 60 feet tall and wide at maturity, makes the Sugarberry an excellent ornamental tree for both landscape and street use. Get all the details below!
