Coralberry is a lovely, dense shrub that’s native to Texas, and across the US from the Eastern US and west to Texas, Colorado, and South Dakota. You can often find it happily growing in open woods, fields, pastures, and thickets all over the state. It particularly appreciates Post Oak woodlands. Coralberry spreads by sending out runners, creating thickets that provide shelter for local wildlife. Typically reaching a height of 2-5 feet, its arching stems add a graceful touch to its surroundings. During the summer, it blooms bell-shaped white flowers that have a hint of pink, arranged in clusters along the branches and tips of the stems. As autumn rolls around, these lovely flowers make way for clusters of round, coral-red berries that brighten up the winter landscape and can stick around well into the colder months. Ecologists have noted that coralberry is of particular benefit to Native bees, attracting large numbers of them. It also is noted as supporting conservation biological control, meaning that it attracts predatory insects that prey on pest insects.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 10-15 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.

Thick stem and well rooted
Looking good
The plant I received is beautiful. I am watering it daily and will get it in the ground soon. It is still a little hot here to plant.
I always enjoy shopping here. The staff are extremely accommodating and helpful. There is a nice selection of quality plants.
Shipping was fast and plants were very well packaged and protected. Will buy from again!
Really beautiful, healthy plant! Securely packaged and arrived safely with no damage. I have planted it and will wait for it to do its thing. Thank you!
I showed this plant and a picture of a mature one to a couple of my neighbors and they’re discussing where they might want to plant one in their yards. We’re all kind of waiting to see how this one does right now because we all think we should wait a couple of months at least to see how it’s progressing.
