Vaccinium arboreum, otherwise known as Sparkleberry or Farkleberry, is a beautiful species of Vaccinium that originates from the southeastern United States. This tree or large shrub grows up to 20 feet tall and is known for its glossy green leaves and attached clusters of small white flowers that bloom in spring. Later in the growing season, the plant produces delicious edible berries that are a favorite among wildlife and humans alike. These berries are rich in antioxidants and have a tart, sweet flavor that can be eaten raw or made into jams, jellies, or pies.

If you're looking to add diversity to your landscape, Sparkleberry is an excellent choice. Its attractive features and tolerance to a variety of soil types make it an ideal addition to any garden or natural area. Check out the USDA website for more information on this remarkable plant species and consider planting it in your backyard today.
