In my native plant garden the blossoms snowberry of the snowberry are a
favorite food destination of hummingbirds Whereas the berries are the food
of last resort for towhees but seem to be ignored by most other birds, even
when all other berries are gone.

The white berries contrast nicely with the orange-red berries of the
cascade mountain ash and the scarlet berry native viburnum in my native
hedge
