Berberis nervosa

Mahonia nervosa, commonly known as dwarf Oregon-grape, Cascade barberry, Cascade Oregon-grape, or dull Oregon-grape, is a flowering plant native to the northwest coast of North America from southern British Columbia south to central California, with an isolated population inland in northern Idaho. It is especially common in second growth, Douglas-fir or western redcedar forests, making use of those pools of sunlight that intermittently reach the ground.
Some authors place the entire genus Mahonia within the genus Berberis.
The plant was collected by Lewis and Clark during their famous expedition to the West before being described for science in 1813.

3-6 hours of sun per day, with protection from intense mid-day sun
