High Bush cranberries are related to the ornamental Viburnums, and as such, grow into large, attractive shrubs. They bear a profusion of berries which can be eaten fresh, can be dried, or else frozen for later use. Cranberries like a little frost in winter, so you may not have as much success in the frost-free areas of the country. Although you will have to wait a few years for the fruit, it’s well-worth growing cranberries.
