Compact Oregon Grape
Mahonia aquifolium 'Compacta'
Summary
The 40% ETo treatment yielded consistently the highest quality ratings, though there were no differences between treatments in relative growth. Since flowering occurred before treatments were applied, it cannot be correlated to irrigation in a 2-year trial.
Shasta and both San Diego County locations gave this species low overall appearance ratings for the year and did not recommend it. As mentioned before, native species can be slow to establish, and given better growing conditions and time, they may have changed their final recommendations.
