The Berry Poppins® Winterberry Holly is a fantastic option for people wanting to grow winterberry shrubs, but with minimal space. These dwarf shrubs are compact but still produce a great show in the winter once the leaves drop and the berries grow. Birds love the berries but the shrub itself is deer resistant.
Be sure to plant these with Mr. Poppins® Winterberry Holly, which is the male shrub that will pollinate these bushes and ensure berries grow in the winter. These are native to North America, which means that the shrubs are easy to care for, disease resistant, and require minimal water once established.
Berry Poppins Winterberry Holly Holly Care
These bushes can tolerate a wide range of soil conditions from light dry soil to heavy saturated soil.
Pruning Berry Poppins Winterberry Holly is not necessary. For best results and maximum flower and berry production, only trim dead or sick branches. You may cut off branches in the winter for natural decor. But be sure not to prune too many branches, otherwise performance the next year is not impacted.
Because these shrubs are native to North America, very little care and maintenance is required once established. That means you do not need to worry about watering, fertilizing or pruning each year.
Berry Poppins Winterberry Holly Spacing
These bushes should be spaced out 3 to 4 feet apart, center on center. If you wish to grow a low mounding garden border or hedge, plant these 30-36 inches apart, center on center.
Ensure that you plant the male and female shrubs within 50 feet apart for best results and maximum berry production.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
