Insights
Known as the Snowberry for obvious reasons, S. Magical Galaxy is native to North America. Ideal for informal or cottage gardens, it is also good in a wildflower meadow and is wonderfully tolerant of pollution in urban areas. While appealing to look at, the berries will cause stomach upset if consumed.
