Cranberry \Cran"ber*ry\ (kr[a^]n"b[e^]r*r[y^]), n.; pl.
{Cranberries} (-r[i^]z). [So named from its fruit being ripe
in the spring when the cranes return. --Dr. Prior.] (Bot.)
A red, acid berry, much used for making sauce, etc.; also,
the plant producing it (several species of {Vaccinum} or
{Oxycoccus}.) The {high cranberry} or {cranberry tree} is a
species of {Viburnum} ({V. Opulus}), and the other is
sometimes called {low cranberry} or {marsh cranberry} to
distinguish it.
