They are even more obvious now that the leaves have faded and dropped away. I don’t know that much about snowberry plants so I had a quick search for some facts and this is what I found:
⚪️ Snowberries are part of the honeysuckle family
⚪️ They are particularly hardy and survive well in areas of poor soil
⚪️ The berries make an important food source for small mammals during the winter
⚪️ Snowberries are toxic to humans and should not be eaten
⚪️ Native Americans used snowberries for medicine and soap, and in Russia they are crushed into dry hands as a kind of lotion

Snowberry is a great choice of plant for your garden as it needs very little maintenance and is a great source of pollen in the summer for bees and provides shelter for animals all year round too. The only thing you will need to do is make sure you cut it back every so often so that it doesn't take over the garden!
