None of that cloned, ‘Eve Case’ or ‘Mound San Bruno’ cultivar bullshit, this Coffeeberry is the real deal – the straight species, propagated from open-pollinated seed.
A medium-to-large evergreen shrub with handsome, waxy leaves and black fruit, Frangla californica can be found in just about every California biome. It seems to be equally happy in any exposure, from full sun to part shade and, once established, will appreciate a little extra water now and then.
