Award-winning Mahonia x media 'Buckland' (Oregon Grape) is a large, upright, evergreen shrub with a striking foliage of large, bold, dark green leaves, each composed of 17-21 spiky leaflets. Arching racemes of sweetly scented, soft yellow flowers open over an extended period in winter. They attract pollinating insects before giving way to grape-like clusters of glossy, round, deep purple berries in late summer and fall. The fruits attract birds and wildlife. The lustrous evergreen foliage may take on red or purple tints when the weather turns cold. An impressive winter-flowering shrub which makes an imposing feature in the border all year long.
