The fruit can be used to make a delicious jelly. These native evergreens have aromatic small leaves that form a dense canopy. Mature height is around 15 feet, and the width is about 12 feet, and you could prune during dormancy to control the size, if necessary. The berries provide food for birds. Or consider hollies.
Females bear red berries if there's a male holly nearby.
The foliage is dense, small and dark green, and contrasts nicely with large clusters of small white blooms in spring. Birds are drawn to the purple berries in fall. I am not sure about the name of a plant I have. It's in full bloom with large, long yellow flowers on top of each stem. It is in a pot, and the roots have gone into the ground.
