Description
Gilt Edge Silverberry is a standout evergreen shrub that combines rugged toughness with year-round ornamental appeal. Its most striking feature is the bold, golden-yellow margin that outlines each glossy, dark green leaf, with the foliage often taking on a subtle pinkish hue in cooler weather. The silvery undersides of the leaves add to its luminous quality. Fast-growing, dense, and remarkably tolerant of coastal conditions, wind, and drought, it quickly forms an excellent colorful hedge, screen, or architectural specimen with minimal care required.
