Mahonia aquifolium—Oregon Grape Holly Seeds

This is the state flower of Oregon. It is beautiful to behold during the springtime and it often glows in shady corners of gardens and in our woods and forests. Later, the blooms ripen into cluster of glaucous blue berries and if the birds don't collect them, you can enjoy their color in your garden too.

Its foliage is lovely too and during the winter the tips of its holly-like leaves redden along its edges. This is a North American native plant native from British Columbia to California. (It's considered an invasive exotic plant in some places so be sure to check your area's listings.)

Germination instructions will be included with your seeds. (20 seeds)
