About This

• Bright Red Winter Berries: 100 Winterberry seeds for planting grow Ilex verticillata, a native deciduous holly famous for clusters of brilliant red berries on bare winter branches. Deep green summer foliage, creamy white flowers and vivid fruit provide changing seasonal color in native gardens and landscapes
• Native Deciduous Holly: Winterberry produces small greenish white to creamy white flowers followed by brilliant red fruit on pollinated female plants. Unlike evergreen hollies, the green leaves drop in fall to reveal clusters of colorful berries that can remain prominently displayed throughout the winter
• Male and Female Plants: Winterberry is dioecious, so separate male and female plants are required for berry production. A compatible male must flower nearby at the same time to pollinate female flowers, and plants grown from seed cannot reliably be identified as male or female until they mature
• 6 to 12 Foot Shrub: Mature Winterberry shrubs commonly grow approximately 6 to 12 feet tall and wide, depending on genetics and growing conditions. Their upright to rounded branching habit creates a substantial native shrub for landscape borders, wildlife gardens and naturalized plantings
• Moist Soil Native: Winterberry naturally grows in moist environments and performs well in consistently moist, acidic soil. Plant in full sun to partial shade, with stronger sunlight generally supporting heavier flowering and fruiting when compatible male and female plants are present
