  • Yellow Flowers in Spring: In late winter to early spring, Mahonia aquifolium produces clusters of bright yellow flowers. The fragrant blooms are a welcome sight and provide early-season nectar for pollinators, including bees.
  • Blue-Black Berries: Following the flowering period, Oregon Grape Holly develops clusters of small, blue-black berries. These berries are a distinctive feature and provide visual interest in the landscape. They are also attractive to birds.

Care Instructions

Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
