The flowers are replaced with bright red berries that provide a burst of color during the fall and winter. This is a deciduous shrub, so the berries stand out on bare branches for a stark visual. Winter Red Winterberry is a female plant, and a late-blooming male plant is necessary for the flowers to be pollinated and berries to develop.Use this tall, upright, multi-stemmed shrub to establish a hedge, privacy screen, or border. Winterberry is a tolerant plant that can handle various conditions, and it is very easy to maintain. This plant is native to North America, so it requires very little care once it is acclimated.

This shrub prefers damp conditions and will need one inch of water per week.
