Rhamnus Californica 'Eve Case' (5 Gallon) Coffeeberry

About this item

A beautiful and versatile California native, Eve Case Coffeeberry is a dependable evergreen shrub prized for its dense, rounded form, attractive foliage, and exceptional value to local wildlife. Its leathery, oval leaves are deep green with distinctive rolled-under margins, providing year-round color and texture in the garden.

Small, understated flowers attract pollinators before developing into abundant berries that ripen from green to rich red and dark reddish-black by autumn. These colorful fruits provide an important food source for birds and other wildlife, making Eve Case Coffeeberry an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly and native gardens.

With its naturally compact shape and adaptable nature, this low-maintenance shrub works beautifully as an informal hedge, a garden screen, or an accent in mixed borders and naturalistic landscapes. Drought-tolerant once established, it is well suited to water-wise gardens and a variety of sun exposures, offering lasting beauty with minimal supplemental irrigation.
