Tall Oregon Grape

This plant's glossy, green, holly-like leaves emerge coppery in the spring, contrasting nicely with the golden yellow, scented flowers that are clustered at the top of the stems. Frosted blue berries follow in summer. Tall Oregon Grape is adaptable and thrives in both sun and shade. Pruning is straightforward: during winter, remove old or damaged stems by cutting them back to the ground.
