We have found it in Reston and remove it when we see it growing in our natural areas.

I have seen 2 or 3 individual plants in 4 different locations in Montgomery County Maryland parks.

Again only 4 spots, and all close to neighborhood property lines-- but I do think that it has every potential of expanding.

We've seen a few scattered around that have escaped but only a few.

I encourage folks to treat/manage against it more for its association with ticks than it being biologically invasive.

My limited experience: it is invasive, but it hasn’t been widely planted for a long time yet, so we’re just starting to see it come up in the wild. Introduced 1900; people are going for it more now in the never-ending search for easy, evergreen plantings. First time I saw it (about 8 years ago), it wasn’t on any of my lists of invasives, & I identified it using Dirr’s Manual of Woody Landscape Plants.

Looks like there are a few more records on iNaturalist (I didn’t check them to see if the verifications were accurate). I also didn’t look for unvalidated records for the species – which could turn up a few more possible sites.

Subject: [MAIPC] Berberis julianae or wintergreen barberry

Can anyone give some insight of the invasiveness of this shrub? EddMaps shows just a few reports Virginia and DC, but I wonder if it has been underreported. I did report it. Any experiences or observations out there?

I recently found one growing in natural area outside of Charlottesville, VA. Nasty thing and I am not sure why anyone would plant it. Likely an escape from nearby landscaping transported by a bird. Unfortunately, it a few weeks ago I spotted it being sold by a local nursery here in Charlottesville. It would be a great conversation to have with that nursery, but I want to be armed with information first.

Thank you,

Beth Mizell
