Ardisia crenata

Ardisia crenata, also known as coral berry, features glossy evergreen leaves and bright red berries that persist through winter, adding year-round visual interest. It blooms with small white to pink flowers in late spring. Easy to care for, it tolerates low light and is suitable for beginners, though it prefers moist, well-drained soil. Ideal for living rooms or shaded balconies, it also makes an attractive tabletop plant. Growth is moderate, requiring some patience. Note: the berries and foliage are toxic if ingested, so it’s not recommended for homes with curious pets or young children.
