Nannyberry
Shade tolerant native shrub or shrubby tree, can grow up to 20’. Suckers at the base to form a natural hedge. Produces dark blue berries in the fall that can be used in jams and jellies. Hardy to zone 2. Potted 2’-3’, requires another for fruiting. Space 10’-15’ in full sun to part shade. Tolerates a wide range of soils.
Pollinators and other beneficial insects provide such important ecosystem services as controlling pest populations and pollinating our fruit trees and berry plants. In fact, there would be no fruit without them. Unfortunately, many are facing decline and need our help. Pollinator plants make great orchard companions. Not only are they beautiful, but they provide food and habitat for beneficial insects, and many are native to Vermont, thus increasing resilience in the landscape in the face of climate change.
