Lingonberries make a dense, evergreen mound in the herb garden. They are about the size of beebies, so picking is slow. Lingonberry combs are available for harvesting, but they gather the stems and sticks, as well as unripe berries.

Lingonberries are native to Scandinavia and popular in many recipes there.
