Salal (Gaultheria shallon) is low growing shrub (2-8 ft.) which is native to most of the west coast, ranging from British Columbia to southern California. It prefers partial shade and well draining, acidic soil. Salal is hardy in USDA zones 5-9.
Salal is non-toxic, the foliage is dark green and leathery. The spikes of pretty pink flowers are produced in the Spring and form dark purple berries for the birds to eat in the Fall and Winter months.
Salal berries can be used to make jellies.
Salal is a deer resistant plant
