Legend
Description:
12-18’ x 12’ wide (seed propagated) A deciduous, native shrub that develops great character with age. It can be grown into a dense hedge, or pruned to form a twisting, multi-stemmed small tree. The beautiful whitish bark accentuates the bright yellow fall foliage. Female plants produce considerable quantities of blue-black berries that are eaten by birds. Male and female plants are indistinguishable as seedlings, so order three or more to ensure berry set. A moderate to fast grower in any soil. Although drought tolerant, regular watering will help the plant to thrive and fill out quickly.
Zones 4-9.
Special Notes:
Grows easily in any moderately fertile garden soil.
