A female winterberry hybrid cross, when pollinated by a male, Sparkleberry is prized for her stunning profusion of brilliant red berries that put on a spectacular color show in winter. All grown up she reaches 6 to 10 feet in height and equally as wide with a rounded habit covered in lustrous, dark green leaves that turn to golden yellow in fall. Excellent as a specimen, in groupings, as a hedge, or lower branches can be removed to for a spectacular small tree. An outstanding selection that provides eye-popping color in the winter landscape, and the berries are a great food source for birds!
