Amazing when it snows, as these winterberry bushes produce brilliant, colorful berries through the winter months. To ensure color, a male pollinator should be planted near a female winterberry. To make sure you get berries, we're sending you both. An easy asset because our Winter Red Winterberry is such a low-maintenance shrub, even in areas that have proven difficult. Deer rarely bother it, but bees will be happy to help pollinate the blooms. Ilex verticillata 'Winter Red' and Ilex verticillata 'Southern Gentleman'
