Uva Ursi | Uva Ursi (Arctostaphylos Uva-Ursi) plant is found in colder, northern climates. Uva Ursi has red flowers and red berries, which bears like to eat. When the early North American colonists arrived in the new country, they found the Indians had independently discovered the many uses of Uva Ursi, which derives its name from the Latin Uva or "grape" and Ursus, meaning "bear" since the fruit is rough and unpleasant and unpleasant and said to only appeal to bears. Another name for Uva Ursi is Bearberry or Bear's Grape. It is the leaves that are most often employed by man for their beneficial properties.
