An evergreen, bushy shrub, or hedging plant, which tolerates most soils and conditions, but prefers a sunny, moist, well-drained position. The Oregon-grape has yellow flowers in late winter / early spring, which attract bumble bees. The leaves are shiny dark-green throughout most of the year, turning purple in winter. The blue / black berries resemble grapes, but are not related. They are very acid in flavour with many seeds, and can be eaten only when cooked. However, birds and other wildlife are very attracted to them.
