Semi-evergreen shrub with deep green, leathery foliage. Leaves are aromatic when crushed. Waxy gray berries in fall and winter can be used to make candles although it takes a great amount. Easily grown in full sun to partial shade. Prefers moist, peaty or sandy, acidic soils, but tolerates a wide range of soils and growing conditions, including poor soils, wet soils, drought, high winds and salt spray (seashore or road salt conditions). Make a great hedge along a road. Groupings of plants need a least one pollen producing plant to facilitate pollination of the pollen receiving plants and subsequent fruit set. Mature height 5’-8’ tall and wide. Native to Massachusetts.
Size: 12-24″ bare root plant
Berries attracts turkey, pheasant, and other game birds as well as songbirds. Shrubs tend to sucker, and may form sizable colonies in optimum growing conditions.
