Sugarberry (Celtis laevigata) is a hardy and adaptable deciduous tree known for its smooth, light gray bark and small, sweet berries that attract wildlife. Native to North America, this member of the hackberry family thrives in a variety of climates and soil types, making it a resilient choice for landscapes and naturalized areas. Its broad, spreading canopy provides ample shade, while its deep green, lance-shaped leaves turn a soft yellow in the fall. The tree’s small, orange to reddish-brown fruits ripen in late summer to early fall, offering a natural food source for birds and other wildlife.
Often found along riverbanks, woodlands, and urban settings, Sugarberry is valued for its durability and low maintenance needs. Its wood has traditionally been used for furniture, while its berries have been recognized for their mild sweetness and historical significance in Indigenous diets. Though not commonly grown for human consumption today, the fruit can be foraged and used in small-batch recipes. With its graceful form, wildlife-friendly nature, and ability to thrive in challenging conditions, Sugarberry remains a notable and versatile tree in both natural and cultivated landscapes.
