Sizes available: 2 quart

Basics: zones 4-8, 4-8" x 12-18" (will spread in optimal conditions), full sun to part shade, light pink blooms in late spring to early summer, edible red berries follow in the fall, new leaves emerge red and also exhibit shades of red as the season cools, needs acidic soil and consistent moisture to do well, but does not need to be planted in a bog.

Common names: Large Cranberry, American Cranberry, Bearberry

Family: Ericaceae

Origin/Distribution: Newfoundland to Manitoba, south to Virginia, Ohio, northern Illinois, and mountainous areas into North Carolina and Tennessee. Is an escapee in other parts on North America and has also naturalized in parts of Europe. Native to Maine.

Habitat: cool, acidic, wet, boggy, periodically inundated soils, also coastal areas

More: Vaccinium macrocarpon is a very low-growing mat-forming shrub with petite, glossy leaves. Deer and rabbit resistant and salt-tolerant. Adaptable to less-than-cranberry-bog conditions. I have neglected some in small pots for a few seasons and they are astonishing me with their adaptable aplomb. The large red fruits are eaten by some birds and small mammals. Also enjoyed by humans usually with added sweetener to make jelly, sauce, or juice. Used dried or fresh in muffins or pastries and as an addition to granola. Has been used medicinally. Larval host for the Bog Copper butterfly, Lycaena epixanthe, which is native to Maine, but probably won't show up unless you have a bog.

If you have less than ideal conditions, how about a bog planting in a large container? Pitcher plant, Cranberry, one or two Carex that like it wet, Bogbean, etc. That sounds fun. If I try it I will let you know.

My god loves his new chew bone 😍
My dog loves this chew bone, he chewed on it daily since I gave it to him. It's good value for money, pretty hard, lasted about a month & a half. Good size bone for a medium sized dog

Long lasting bone for aggressive chewers!

Best thing for boredom
My dog loves the Benebone especially when he is bored. He loves the chicken one the best. When the edges start to splinter or get rough, we get him a new one.

My Dog Is Obsessed — Long-Lasting and Worth Every Penny
The Benebone Wishbone is hands-down one of my dog’s favorite chew toys. He cannot get enough of it. The real chicken flavor keeps him interested, and the wishbone shape gives him a solid grip from any angle. What stands out is the durability. My dog is a strong chewer, and this thing holds up far better than most toys on the market. No soft spots, no chunks breaking off, and no mess—just a tough, long-lasting chew that keeps him busy. Made in the USA is a bonus, and the medium size works great for a wide range of breeds. If you’ve got an aggressive chewer or a dog who goes nuts for flavored bones, this one is absolutely worth having in the rotation.
