Nope, real cranberry's grow on low bushes is a swampy area.
A relative of the cranberry, called Viburnum, grow on higher bushes, in slightly drier area, but!!!!!! nothing more than 6-8 feet. Sorry! NO trees!

Cranberries grow on a deciduous bush that can be up to 10 to 12 ft. high. It grows to be about 8 feet wide. Cranberry bushes grow up to 3 feet a year in full sun or part shade. The bush has white flowers in spring and red berries in the fall.

Cranberries grow on bushes in bogs.

Yes, they grow on river banks.
They are called "Highbush Cranberry", and I pick them every fall; some of the bushes are well over 8 feet tall.
I also grew 2 bushes of Highbush Cranberry which were very bushy and tall.
If you don't believe me, look in my freezer; bags of cranberries, which I make into cranberry jam and juice.

not on trees but on small shrubs, when its time they flood the fields and go harvest,its like a paddle wheel its like waste deep and then they herd them to an area that will pick them up on a conveyor and into a truck and the rest is washing and what not, drinks

yes - they grow on really big trees in the deep south. they ripen in the blistering heat of summer. you have to pick them before they fall to the ground though...because the honey bears will get them otherwise.
anyone with a better story? ;)

no, but there is a fruit tree that isn't very common in the US...its called a Rowan Berry Tree...the fruit looks like cranberries, and has a sweet apple/cherry taste to them...mostly found in the UK, but I have seen them in some parts of the US, and you can get them in tree nurseries

no, they grow in bogs. cranberries are semi aquatic plants

No. They actually grow in bogs - in the water. Look it up on your computer.
