Hollyleaf Cherry - Prunus ilicifolia

Hollyleaf Cherry, Prunus ilicifolia, evergreen shrub/small tree, lush growth, shiny leaves, white flowers, red fruit, drought tolerant.

Prunus illicifolia grows native here with wild grape & oak trees. Adding to the bounty of the forest, steelhead trout ran in the now dry creek a couple generations ago.
