Autumn in the Garden
Winterberry Holly (Ilex verticillata, native shrub for full sun to part shade, dry to wet soil). Great fall and winter interest when the leaves turn yellow then fall leaving red, orange or yellow berries on bare stems. Berry color dependent upon variety type. Needs a male plant near by for pollination and berry production. Great source of food for overwintering birds and nice cut branches in pots for winter interest. Ruth Consoli Design
