Growing Oregon Grape (Mahonia aquifolium)
  • Evergreen shrub with glossy, holly-like spiny leaves that turn purplish-bronze in winter for year-round interest.
  • Fragrant bright yellow spring flowers attract pollinators.
  • Produces edible blue-black berries in summer, enjoyed by birds (can be used for jellies).
  • Low-maintenance, tough, and wildlife-friendly; excellent for shade, ground cover, or barriers.
Planting and Care
  • Hardiness: Fully hardy tolerates temperatures down to -15°C.
  • Site: Prefers partial to full shade; tolerates full sun if soil remains moist; shelter from cold winds.
  • Soil: Moist but well-drained, humus-rich; adaptable to clay, loam, sand, or chalk; slightly acidic to neutral preferred.
  • Planting: bare root plants from November to March; add organic matter to the hole for establishment.
  • Maintenance: Drought-tolerant once established; mulch annually; prune after flowering to control spread (suckers freely).
  • Height/Spread: Typically 1-1.5m tall and wide.
