In coastal Central California and Northern California of the
United States, the red huckleberry (Vaccinium parvifolium) is found in the
Coast Redwood plant community. A prostrate form occurs also. In the Pacific
Northwest region of North America, the huckleberry plant grows in many places.
It can be found in mid-alpine regions, often on the lower slopes of mountains.
The plant grows best in damp, acidic soil. Under optimal conditions,
huckleberries bushes can be as high as 1.5 to 2 metres (4.9 to 6.6 ft), and
usually ripen in mid-to-late summer, or later at higher elevations. The Red
Huckleberry (Vaccinium parvifolium) is used horticulturally in coastal
naturalistic and native plant public landscapes and private gardens.
