Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Ericaceae family

I keep noticing these very small, brilliant red berries recently. They add such a welcome splash of colour in the forest, especially along with the bright berries of Bunchberry, which are also low-growing. Macro photograph taken near Forgetmenot Pond, Kananaskis, on July 1st. This woody, groundcover shrub belongs to the family Ericaceae, and has evergreen leaves. Two other common names are Kinnikinnick and Pinemat manzanita. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctostaphylos_uva-ursi plantwatch.fanweb.ca/plant-information/bearberry-kinnicki...
