Rhamnus californica Eve
Case is a native to the Oak woodland habitat. I am always looking for
plants grow under oaks in the wild. The oak woodland is full of stuff
besides the trees. Too often our landscapes are filled with
water loving plants that eventually are the demise of the native Oak trees.
Rhamnus californica Eve Case grows to 8' has clean green leaves and in the
Fall and Winter through Spring these red berries. Coffee Berry can be
trimmed into a hedge or screen or left natural. I have found Rhamnus
californica to be disease free and pretty easy to manage. The Coffee
Berry can handle being mixed into the irrigated area or not.
Rhamnus californica is a larval food source for the Pale
Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly and is a great addition to the butterfly
garden.
