Description:
Similar in appearance to Holly, the Oregon Grape grows to about 6 feet tall and 4 feet wide. It receives its common name for the clusters of edible berries that follow its showy yellow springtime flowers. A good bird plant for the food and habitat it provides. The early blooming Ceanothus provide a beautiful blue display to accent the yellow flowers.
