Origin of Symphoricarpos cut flowers
Symphoricarpos, also called snowberry, comes from North and Central America. It’s a shrub that produces clusters of small, round berries and delicate flowers. These berries often appear in autumn, making them perfect for seasonal arrangements. The plant has been used for centuries in gardens and even by some Native American tribes for practical purposes. Despite being a wild-looking plant, it’s become popular in cut flower arrangements because of its charming berries.

How to care for Symphoricarpos cut flowers
Taking care of Symphoricarpos cut flowers is pretty simple. When you bring them home, cut the stems at an angle and place them in clean water. Keep them away from direct sunlight and heaters to make them last longer. Changing the water every few days helps prevent the berries from shriveling. In autumn, their soft berries and tiny flowers make them perfect for adding a natural touch to indoor arrangements.

What makes it special
What makes Symphoricarpos special are its cute, round berries that can be white, pink, or even reddish. These berries give bouquets a unique texture and a pop of seasonal color. The flowers themselves are small and delicate, which contrasts nicely with the bold berries. They’re also very versatile, looking great in rustic or modern arrangements alike. During autumn, they add a cozy, woodland feeling to any space.

Funny fact
Here’s a fun fact — even though Symphoricarpos berries look sweet, they’re actually mildly toxic if eaten! Birds, however, don’t mind at all and love snacking on them. Another interesting thing is that the plant is sometimes called “ghostberry” because the pale berries almost glow in the shade. So while they’re safe to look at and enjoy in bouquets, they’re definitely not a snack for humans!
