Description
Marvel Mahonia is a new, statuesque selection of grapeberry mahonia with many very special attributes. In our gardens here in north-central Georgia it produces pretty candle-like clusters of fragrant, bright yellow flowers at the tops of branches. The flowers are followed by attractive grape-like clusters of bluish-purple berries that add extra appeal in the landscape and are relished by birds. But the flowers and berries aren’t the only great attributes. The frond-like, evergreen leaves develop in whorls along horizontally layered branches on vertical stems provide unique texture and form in the landscape that contrasts nicely with any other types of plants nearby.
Marvel Mahonia is one of a few evergreen shrubs that not only grows well but thrives under the canopies of large shade trees. It is also useful as a natural hedge or as an accent, in groupings or to frame an entryway in shady home foundation plantings. Hosta Lilies, perennial ferns and other shade-loving plants make great companions.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 5 to 6 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, Marvel Mahonia is ideal for use as an accent in groupings or as a natural hedge in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Also does quite well as a solo or combined with other shade-loving plants in pots, planters and other containers. A fine addition to shade gardens, yellow theme gardens, Asian theme gardens and cottage gardens. Consider Creeping Jenny or Vinca minor (Evergreen Periwinkle) as an underplanting.
Suggested Spacing: 2.5 to 3 feet apart for hedges or groupings; 6 feet or more apart for space between plants
How To Measure Total Square Feet Of A Planting Area
How Many Plants Needed To Cover A Planting Area?
Note: For our customers who live and garden North of USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 6a, where this Mahonia is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and place back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Marvel Mahonia is very easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and shade to part shade. Morning sun with afternoon shade is okay, but avoid direct afternoon sun. Very easy to maintain requiring little or no pruning.
Plant Long & Prosper!

Wanted to replace my leather mahonia. Looked everywhere locally for the Marvel Mahonia, but couldn’t locate any. Wilson Brothers to the rescue!————————————————-Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review! We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
We were extremely pleased with our purchase of Marvel Mahonia plants from Wilson Brothers. Our plants arrived quickly and well packaged. The plants are beautiful and healthy and have flourished. We were so delighted that we ordered five more Marvel Mahonia. We have ordered different varieties of plants from Wilson Brothers and all have been top quality. I don’t think we will ever go to a local nursery again. The web site provides all the care and planting information that you need and provides great descriptions of the plants.———————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the great review! Thanks for the kind words! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

We are SO happy for our beautiful, healthy Marvel Mahonia – and it is a marvel, too! It stands as a unique accent in our garden park beneath a lovely old tree – such a fine and promising fellow 🙂 And despite an initial delivery snafu no fault of their own: Spencer was so kind and gracious he provided a whole new one that he had tended all summer. This is also unique – Wilson Bros is just plain Special, and has been for years – that’s why we love it so much!—————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

It’s definitely a “marvel”….has a unique look and texture that really stands out in the landscape and contrasts well with just about any other plant. Hope you enjoy it for many years to come.
