Vaccinium vitis-idaea - Lingonberry

25 seeds per pack. A small, shrubby evergreen related to the blueberry, bearing small, red edible berries. Lignonberries are quite popular in Northern Europe and lend their tart flavor to preserves, desserts, beverages and syrups. The tiny plant usually grows to 6-16". Does very well in near-Arctic and tundra climates. There is some commercial cultivation in the Pacific Northwest region. #3815
