Apple-berry
Billardiera scandens
Apple-berry is an Australian native twining climber that thrives in dappled shade with moderate, consistent moisture. Provide a trellis or support structure and keep the soil well-drained but not waterlogged. The small cream flowers give way to edible berry-like fruits enjoyed by both gardeners and native wildlife.
