snowberries
Pale ornamental drupes
Snowberries are the white, berry-like fruits of shrubs in the honeysuckle family, native to North America.
The small round fruits persist through winter, standing out against bare branches and snow.
Though mildly toxic to humans, they provide food for birds and wildlife.
The shrubs themselves are also called snowberries.
