This attractive evergreen shrub is adaptable to a variety of conditions, and provides interest year-round. It has upright, sparsely branched stems up to 8' tall, and glossy, dark green compound leaves with spiny margins, sometimes turning shades of bronze and red to purple. Large, showy clusters of fragrant yellow flowers bloom in the spring, attracting numerous pollinators and beneficial insects. The flowers are followed by clusters of blue fruits in the summer, which are loved by birds, and are also edible to humans. The fruits are tart when eaten fresh, and are often made into jam or wine. Tall oregon grape is perfect for hedgerows, evergreen hedges, pollinator gardens, and food forests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSun Exposure:\u003c\/b\u003e Part shade to full sun, tolerates shade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil \u0026amp; Moisture:\u003c\/b\u003e Moist, well-drained soil.
