Raritan Chief Winterberry Holly
Raritan Chief Winterberry Holly (Ilex verticillata 'Raritan Chief') is an exceptional deciduous shrub appreciated for its abundance of vibrant berries and ornamental appeal, especially during the winter season. This cultivar is highly prized for its large, round, bright red berries that adorn the branches, creating a striking display against the dark green leaves. In late spring to early summer, inconspicuous white to pale pink flowers bloom, attracting pollinators. Raritan Chief Winterberry Holly is dioecious, requiring both male and female plants for the female specimens to bear the abundant, eye-catching berries. It is a versatile shrub, suitable for wet or boggy areas, making it ideal for rain gardens and waterside plantings. The resilience, adaptability, and vibrant winter display make it a sought-after choice for adding a burst of color and visual interest to the winter landscape.
