Description

This thorny shrub grows to 6' tall and 5' wide, moderately fast. It has small green, evergreen leaves. Small white flowers bloom in early spring. Reddish black small berries that follow are an important source of food for birds. This shrub needs full sun. Irrigate every 3-4 weeks after it's established, especially during the summer.

Water Saving Tip:

Even during our hottest months we don't need to water daily.

Give your plants a chance to breathe.

Water late at night or in the early morning hours to avoid losses to wind and evaporation.
