Winterberry is a slow-growing, deciduous, suckering shrub with an upright rounded habit. Among winterberry cultivars, both 'Winter Red' and 'Berry Nice' are noted for heavy fruiting, bright red fruit color, clean mildew resistant foliage and good retention of the bright fruit color throughout winter. Fruit occurs on female plants only and requires male plant for pollination.
