Symphoricarpos × doorenbosii 'Amethyst'
Symphoricarpos × doorenbosii ‘Amethyst’, commonly known as Amethyst Snowberry, is a compact deciduous shrub with a rounded, dense habit, prized for its abundant amethyst-pink fruit. In spring and early summer, it bears small, discreet, yet nectar-rich pink flowers, followed from late summer by a profusion of spherical lilac-pink to purplish-pink berries that line the branches elegantly. These decorative fruits persist well into autumn, adding color and texture to beds, borders, and low hedges. Its medium-green foliage forms a compact mass that tolerates pruning and urban conditions well. Very hardy and adaptable, Symphoricarpos × doorenbosii ‘Amethyst’ prefers well-drained soil and a sunny to semi-shady exposure for optimal fruiting.
