Berry Heavy winterberry holly - Jim Dandy Winterberry Holly -

You'll love these bright red winter color for holiday arrangements. Berry Heavy winterberry holly is a native dwarf ilex verticillata and is deer resistant. Grows in the 6 to 8 foot height range.

The Jim Dandy is a male winterberry that is used to pollinate Berry Poppins Ilex verticillata which is a female Winterberry. You'll see lots of very small flowers on the Berry Heavy Winterberry Holly which is a deciduous flowering shrub, but without a male pollinator, it will not fruit. It has attractive, dark-green, healthy foliage and makes a rounded, compact flowering shrub that grows 3 to 4 feet tall and wide. One Jim Dandy male Holly can pollinate up to 6 nearby females within a 50 foot range.
