    A native shrub whose scarlet fruit persists on bare branches through winter into spring. Can be used as a hedge, specimen, foundation plant, or even topiary. Though native to swampy areas yaupon is adaptable to quite dry to extremely wet soils. Plant is dioecious, producing only male or female flowers.
    Possumhaw is especially gorgeous when planted at water's edge, such as along the edge of a pond, where its bright scarlet fruit reflect in the still water. Also stunning when planted with a dark green background such as in front of evergreen trees.
