Reddy for winter

This scarlet winterberry shrub is the perfect hiding place for the northern cardinal. What better spot for singing in the winter holidays? Winterberry is a deciduous holly that's native to North America and can be a modest shrub or a tree reaching up 15 feet. The yellow and green flower clusters that bloom in spring give way to bright red berries in winter.
