Vaccinium erythrocarpum

Vaccinium erythrocarpum – also commonly known as mountain blueberry, southern mountain cranberry, bearberry, arando, and dingleberry, is a species of cranberry.

Vaccinium erythrocarpum has an oddly discontinuous distribution, with one subspecies in the southeastern United States, the other in east Asia.

Vaccinium erythrocarpum is a deciduous shrub. Its flowers bloom in June; the individual flowers are hermaphrodite and are pollinated by insects. They produce scarlet, transparent berries. It grows in woodlands and areas of dappled shade.
