Lemonade Berry is a long-lived native evergreen shrub that is an important part of California chaparral and coastal sage scrub communities. As a food and habitat source for birds and small mammals, it is ideal for native landscape (that has plenty of space) and revegetation and restoration projects. Its handsome foliage and easy adaptability also makes it a great foundation plant for landscapes and gardens. Its leathery, irregularly toothed leaves are light green on the bottom and a darker green with pale veining on top. In spring, it blooms with numerous clusters of small pink and white flowers followed by fuzzy red berries which are edible, with a slightly bitter taste.
