plant sale text:Inkberry is an evergreen southeastern native shrub that has many uses in the landscape.
Inkberry grows best in full sun, though it will tolerate a little bit of shade. It thrives in average to moist soils. Inkberry grows in pine savannahs and bogs, primarily in the coastal plains, from Nova Scotia to Texas. Its fruits have been documented as a valuable food source for at least fifty bird species.
