Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist to wet, acidic soil (pH 3.5–6.5). Space 4–6 feet apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch 2–3 inches deep. Note: Jim Dandy is a male pollinator and must be paired with female winterberry varieties for berry production- it does not produce berries itself.

Care Tips

Water consistently; winterberry thrives in moist to wet conditions and tolerates seasonal flooding. Little pruning is needed. Fertilize lightly in spring with an acid fertilizer. One Jim Dandy can pollinate several nearby female plants. Plant within 50 feet of female varieties such as Winter Red or Sparkleberry for effective pollination and berry production. Largely pest-free.
