Mahonia aquifolium

Mahonia aquifolium
This is the Shining Oregon Grape or Tall Oregon Grape, Mahonia aquifolium, another native plant that is also a common garden shrub, especially in exposed coastal areas. It is the state flower of Oregon, but is as common here as there and is blooming now, along with Mahonia nervosa, the Dwarf Oregon Grape. The flowers are followed by dark blue berries that are edible. This example was photographed in Washington Park.

Beautiful photo.

Mum and Dad had it in the garden at home. It was said to discourage moles !
