This deciduous shrub has it all! Fruit for the birds, nectar for insects, cover for wildlife and multi-season beauty. Clusters of spring blooming white to pinkish flowers provide loads of nectar for pollinators. Dense clusters of glossy red fruit follow the flowers. The fruit ripens in late summer and persists through winter. The glossy foliage turns brilliant red in autumn, making it a terrific alternative to the non-native, burning bush (Euonymus alatus).

Benefits
Compact plant that makes an excellent hedge and provides cover for wildlife
Lustrous foliage with superior red color in the fall
Abundance of large glossy fruit provides late season berries for birds
Prolific flowers provide nectar in spring for early butterflies and pollinators
Tolerant of a wide range of conditions including wet or poor soils
