Symphoricarpos, commonly known as the snowberry, waxberry, or ghostberry, is a small genus of about 15 species of deciduous shrubs in the honeysuckle family, Caprifoliaceae. With the exception of the Chinese coralberry, S. sinensis, which is indigenous to western China, all species are native to North and Central America. The name of the genus is derived from the Ancient Greek words ????????? (sumphoreîn), meaning "to bear together", and ?????? (karpós), meaning "fruit". It refers to the closely packed clusters of berries the species produce.[4]
