Evergreen Huckleberry is a prized addition to any Northwest native landscape with its little urn-shaped flowers, perennial leaves and glossy, blackish-purple berries. Pale pink, urn-shaped flowers appear in the spring. During the summer flowers morph into red berries which later turn the characteristic dark purple color. The fruit can be consumed fresh or used for jams and preserves. Song birds soon find the plants and will consume the berries as well. Description from pnwplants.wsu.edu
