Winterberry Holly

Winterberry Holly is a native deciduous holly shrub known for its bright red berries that persist through winter. Unlike evergreen hollies, it drops its leaves in fall, leaving stems covered in berries in the fall and winter for year-round beauty. Birds love to eat the bright red berries in the winter season when the shrub is aglow. Berries on this decorated shrub form in late summer and turn bright red in fall. They usually last through winter unless birds eat them first. a perfect plant for bird watchers because they flock to it for food in the cold winter months.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are holly leaves used for?

Holly leaves are often used for decorative and traditional purposes. They’re popular in holiday wreaths, garlands, and table arrangements because of their glossy green color and sharp shape. They also serve as symbolic plants, representing protection and eternal life in folklore. Overall, holly leaves are valued mainly for their beauty and cultural significance.
How long does holly live?

Holly plants are long-lived evergreens, often surviving for 50 years or more with proper care. Some larger tree varieties, like English holly, can even live up to a century. Their lifespan depends on growing conditions, such as sunlight, soil quality, and watering habits. Regular pruning and protection from pests help extend their life. When planted in the right spot, holly can stay healthy and attractive for decades.
Can you grow holly from cuttings?

Yes, holly can be grown from semi-hardwood cuttings, which are taken in late summer or early autumn. Choose healthy stems about 4–6 inches long, remove the lower leaves, and dip the cut end in rooting hormone. Plant the cuttings in a moist, well-draining mix of peat and sand. Keep them warm and humid until roots develop, usually in a few months. Once rooted, transplant them into pots or directly outdoors in spring.

Red Maple

I had doubts when I first opened the box. Packaged well. After planting them after two weeks they came to life and are flourishing quite well. They are very healthy and now branching out vividly. Thank you!

Giant Chicory!

I purchased a selection of blue plants. I planted the bare roots in a large planter I call the nursery. I wait until they are adapting to their new environment. When they start growing about three inches, I transplant to a larger pot, then to their permanent location in my garden. One grew to four feet. Others are 1- 2 feet! I can see buds sprouting and can’t wait until they bloom. I did have to cut the 4ft one down to 2 ft so it would get fuller.

My favorite spring flower

My absolute favorite spring flower. I’ve bought several over the years. Sometimes I’ve found they might not come up until the second year but most from this nursery come in the next spring.
