Holly - Afterglow
Afterglow Winterberry, Ilex verticillata 'Afterglow', is a compact growing, female selection that has abundant bright orange-red fruit in the fall. The glossy, deep green summer foliage turns yellow to purple-bronze in fall. Winterberries are the "queens" of the fruiting shrub world when ranked for ornamental value. The fruiting branches are great for decoration in the garden or in the house. The leaves drop off the plant in late fall to expose the beautiful berries. You'll need both male and female plants to produce fruits, and Afterglow requires Ilex 'Jim Dandy' as a pollinator for berries. Plant in sun or part shade. They like moist to wet, slightly acid soils. ... more info
