Ordering plants has concluded for the season. The selection on our website is what is overwintered at the nursery. Our Spring 2025 plant catalog will be available later this winter.

Our native holly, grown from seed. This species is dioecious, so both a male and female plant are required to produce berries. Well worth the effort, winterberries are a superior addition to the winter landscape. Good plant for pollinators, and birds as well. Ilex verticillata is extremely hardy and gracefully handles a wide variety of challenging conditions like clay and permanent wet sites, which also makes it a choice selection for rain gardens.
