Berberis pumila is a species of shrub native to Oregon and northern California . It is found in open woods and rocky areas at an altitude of 300–1,200 m (980–3,940 ft) in the Coast Ranges, the northern Sierra Nevada and the southern Cascades, often on serpentine soils.[2]
Berberis pumila is evergreen, rarely more than 40 cm tall. It has compound leaves and dark blue berries.[2][4]
The compound leaves place this species in the group sometimes segregated as the genus Mahonia.[2][5][6][7]
