A Bit More

Named after its summer berries that resemble the source of your favorite cup of joe, Coffeeberry, or Rhamnus californica, is a native shrub that ranges along the coast from southern Oregon, inland to New Mexico, and down to the Baja peninsula. Coffeeberry is a gracious garden hostess to a variety of wildlife. After a discreet bloom of spring flowers that attract beneficial insects, showy green berries appear that turn red then black as they ripen. If you are a bird lover, plant Coffeeberry to provide shelter of medium- to dark-green leaves as well as reliable summer forage. Rhamnus californica is hardy to 5° F and drought tolerant once established. This sturdy shrub owes its wide range to its adaptablity to a variety of soil types and sun conditions and thus is useful in many environments.

‘Eve Case’ Coffeeberry grows smaller than the species, 4-8’ tall and wide, and can be pruned or left naturalistic to create screens.
