Oregon Holly Grape – Mahonia aquifolium 20 Seeds | Hardy Evergreen Shrub | Non-GMO Edible Blue Berries | Yellow Spring Blooms | Shade & Wildlife Friendly

Grow your own Oregon Holly Grape (Mahonia aquifolium), a hardy evergreen shrub native to the Pacific Northwest. Known for its glossy holly-like leaves, fragrant yellow spring flowers, and edible blue-black berries, this versatile shrub adds year-round beauty to shade gardens and woodland landscapes.

In early to mid-spring, bright yellow flower clusters bloom against deep green foliage, attracting bees and pollinators. By late summer, clusters of dusty blue berries develop — edible and perfect for jams, jellies, or wine-making. Birds and wildlife also love the fruit, making this an excellent habitat plant.

This slow-growing shrub spreads naturally to form colonies and works beautifully in foundation plantings, shrub borders, and naturalized shade gardens. Its foliage often turns burgundy to red-bronze in fall and winter, adding seasonal interest.
