The berries are still on the plant as the flowers show signs of appearing. Low growing, acid loving soil situation, feed with rhododendron food. Great flower arrangers plant.

This is lovely....is it one of those that you need both male and female?

No you don't but if there is another in the vicinity you do get more berries apparently so I bought one with a different colour of berries. It is in a different part of the garden and I did not think to take a pic of it too.
