You can see the yellow blooms of the Oregon Grape all over right now. It grows wild throughout the
island and is also cultivated for use in gardens. The leaves of the Oregon grape resemble those of
holly; they are dark green, spiny and shiny, in almost the same way as the holly leaves are dark
green and shiny. The flowers of this shrub are small and yellowish green in color, and the berries
of the Oregon grape are a shade of dark purple blue, especially when they ripen.
