    Thank you for your answer. I don't know. There were so many plants in each color. I like them together for comparison.
    I found in wikipedia
    Shepherdia canadensis, commonly called Canada buffaloberry, russet buffaloberry,[2] soopolallie, soapberry, or foamberry (Ktunaxa: kupaʔtiǂ,[3]) is one of a small number of shrubs of the genus Shepherdia that bears edible berries. The fruit is usually red, but one species has yellow berries.

    @Nadia White Rock , agreed defiantly the wild look. Looks like a mixture of red and also yellow/ orange berry shrubs. Very nice though and interesting to see.
