Inkberry is a fine alternative to
boxwood for moist, shady sites,

The nursery trade has several
improved inkberry selections.
Nigra, with dark green foliage and
compact, rounded growth, is one

Nigra and grows more upright.
Georgia Wine, another great
inkberry, develops a wonderful
burgundy winter color that returns
to bright green with the new
spring growth.
It may require a little more
pruning than the others.
Inkberry is a great plant for
naturalistic settings. Although it
prefers shade, it also adapts well
to partial sun.
It has to be watered when it
doesn’t rain for while. But deer
and most other pests don’t seem to
bother it.
Attractive, pest-free foliage,
compact growth and adaptability
to moist, shady sites helped put
Inkberry in the winners circle in
2001.
Look for it in your garden cen
ter this spring.
