Heavy berry production for brilliant winter color! Berry Heavy® winterberry produces copious amounts of bright red berries that really shine in the fall and winter landscape. It is a deciduous holly, which means it loses its leaves in fall, but this makes that vivid fruit even showier. The berries can also be cut for use in floral arrangements. Both a male and female plant are required in order to set fruit - use Mr. Poppins® winterberry holly planted nearby. Berries are not edible for humans but are relished by birds after they've softened in mid-winter.
