• The leaves of Common winterberry are not shaped with sharp teeth like other hollies and are not evergreen. The purplish green foliage turns black, in fact, with the first frost. The inconspicuous flowers, however, are followed by dense clusters of bright red berries that remain on the branches throughout winter.
• Winterberry is a globular, upright, medium-sized shrub, typically 6-10 ft. tall (to 20 ft. in some circumstances).
• Extremely showy in late fall and early winter when covered with their bright red fruit, these shrubs are typical of the holly family. Birds are readily attracted to them. Since this shrub grows in both wet and dry sites, it is an adaptable naturalizer.
• Winterberry holly is aptly named for the abundant shiny red berries that adorn this small tree throughout the winter, made all the more striking when the deciduous leaves have dropped. Berries provide critical food for birds in winter, and the shrubs provide cover for nesting during summer. USDA Zone 3-7
