Winterberry

$25.00

Winterberry (Ilex verticillata) can grow 10 to 15 feet in height. Its tiny white flowers bloom in June; you’ll need at least one male plant to pollinate the female plants to produce berries. Unlike other hollies, the dark green leaves are deciduous and its bright red berries crowd its bare winter stems, making a spectacular show. Winterberry is a plant of wet areas, but will do reasonably well under dry conditions. Acid soil is preferable, and full sun will produce the most berries. It is a favorite of many bird species including American Robin, Hermit Thrush, Eastern Bluebird, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, and White-throated Sparrow. (1 gal.)
