Plant of the Day
Thursday 2 November 2017
The Mahonia × media 'Winter Sun' (Oregon grape) has started to flower and later in the autumn and early winter will fill the air with fragrance. This medium-sized evergreen shrub has an upright growth, with long, spiny, pinnate leaves. It is a hybrid resulting from a cross between Mahonia lomariifolia and Mahonia japonica. It can create a striking architectural plant when the lower branches are removed to reveal the stems.
