General Description
Lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea), also known as Cowberry, Foxberry, Mountain Cranberry, or Partridgeberry, is a low-growing evergreen shrub native to boreal forests and Arctic tundra regions. It is highly prized for its bright red, tart berries and glossy green foliage, offering both culinary and ornamental value. The berries are rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, making them a popular ingredient in jams, sauces, and beverages.
