Bayberry is a semi-evergreen shrub native to the east coast of North America. This fast-growing shrub can reach 5-6’ tall with a mounded irregular shape and upright branching habit. The foliage is dark green, leathery, and very aromatic when crushed. During harsh winters, leaves may turn bronze or tan and fall; but in mild winters can remain green. Female plants produce small, gray-blue, waxy berries. Bayberry is a very tough shrub, tolerating a variety of soils including swampy, dry, acidic, alkaline and saline. It prefers full sun but will tolerate partial shade. It responds well to pruning and can be shaped into a hedge or topiary.
