Indian Currant, also called Coralberry or Waxberry (Symphoricarpos orbiculatus), is a dense suckering shrub with clusters of pink to purple red fruit. The fruit ripens in fall, persists into winter, and feeds wildlife.
The shrub can be maintained as a hedge or allowed to form a broad naturalized thicket. Soak the seed in water for 24 hours before beginning the warm and cold stratification cycle.

How to stratify seed
Warm stage first. Keep the same bag at room temperature for the warm period shown, then move it to the fridge.
In the fridge. Put the seed in a bag with a damp medium such as peat moss, vermiculite, sand or coco coir. The medium is only there to hold moisture. Keep the bag in the fridge, above freezing, for the cold period shown, then sow.
Or outside. Sow the seed outdoors in the fall and let winter do the cold period.
