These bright red berries add a welcome splash of colour in the forest at this time of year. We saw these in West Bragg Creek, Kananaskis, on 3rd October. This is a medium-sized, native shrub, whose leaves turn a beautiful colour in the fall. The berries are very high in Vitamin C, but are somewhat astringent. The bush has a most unpleasant, very musty smell, which can be smelled from quite a distance.
