Description
A berry branch reveals in Autumn the coming Winter's food for the nature birds in Ohio.
Red Ilex Berries are small, red berries that cluster along stiff branches. These lush berry branches offer amazing color and texture to holiday centerpieces and floral arrangements. Combine these unique berries with Fifty Flowers’ burgundy dahlia flowers, ivory hydrangeas and black bacarra roses for an absolutely stunning arrangement.
Ilex verticillata, a.k.a. Winterberry is an excellent plant species and in my opinion, way underused. It is a great choice for the Midwest with a hardiness rating of zones 3-9. As it is a deciduous Holly, it offers exceptional seasonal interest in the fall and winter after it drops its
leaves, with its persistent bright colored fruit that ripens in late August – September. ilex verticillata and snowThe fruit hangs on into mid-winter or even later depending on temperatures and bird populations. There have been selections made which offer fruit colors ranging from yellow to orange to the typical red. Winterberry fruit is very beautiful against a backdrop of snow. The fruit-laden branches are also very desirable for winter cut arrangements. Winterberry lends itself well to mass
planting; is easy to grow; tolerant of full sun or partial shade (better fruit set in full sun); adaptable to a wide variety of soils ranging from light to heavy soils and will thrive in wet areas as well. The plant can become chlorotic in high pH soils.
