Flowers and Edible Berries

Small, glossy evergreen leaves provide year-round greenery. In spring, Koralle produces delicate, bell-shaped flowers in shades of white to pink.

Bright red edible berries develop in summer and fall, adding seasonal color into fall and winter. Koralle is known for heavy fruit production and may produce two crops: one in late summer and another in early fall.

The tart berries are ideal for:

  • Homemade sauces

  • Jellies and preserves

  • Other kitchen creations

Growing and Planting

Koralle Lingonberries are suitable for landscape planting, low-growing groundcover, and containers.

  • Spacing: Plant approximately 12 inches apart.

  • Light: Sunny to partly shaded locations; avoid afternoon sun.

  • Soil: Rich, acidic, well-draining soil with a pH of 4.0–6.0.

  • Moisture: Maintain consistent moisture, but avoid waterlogged conditions.

  • Mulching: Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

  • Fertilizer: Light spring fertilizing can be beneficial.

Lingonberries struggle in alkaline or heavy clay soils. Peat moss, fir materials, pine sawdust, or pine needles can help lower soil pH.

Container and Soil Recommendations

For seasonal container growing, consider using our Lingonberry Potting Soil Mix.

For in-ground planting, sawdust can make up approximately 10% of the soil mix, with an additional 2 inches used as mulch. As the sawdust breaks down, it helps lower soil pH.

Our professional-style Lingonberry soil mix contains:

  • 30% fine fir bark, 3/8-inch minus, unscreened

  • 10% fir sawdust

  • 15% natural Cascade Mountain volcanic pumice, 3/8-inch minus, unscreened

  • 25% peat moss

  • 10% perlite

  • 10% vermiculite

Pollination

Koralle is self-pollinating. Planting another lingonberry variety, such as 'Red Candy', nearby may help increase berry production.
