Sparkleberries © 2011 Patty Hankins
I’ve recently added a new photo – Sparkleberries – to my Beautifulflowerpictures.com website.
When we think about colors of fall – we usually think of the leaves changing to wonderful shades of reds, yellows and oranges. But there is also another type of fall color – the wonderful berries that are found in the fall and winter. I spotted these great bright red berries intermingled with the wonderful green leaves in early October. The tag on the tree said Sparkleberry. With a little research I learned that Sparkleberry is a variety of Holly (Ilex (serrata x verticillata)) released in 1978. It was developed at the National Arboretum in Washington, DC and is readily available.
This photograph is available as either a 12 X 8″ gallery-wrapped canvas. You can order Sparkleberries from my website.
