As the smallest member of the dogwood family, this perennial, trailing groundcover grows to only about 8 inches in height in moist soil and shade. Bunchberry produces whorled leaves and 4 whitish bracts that surround the small inflorescence in the center. Blooming in late spring and summer, this plant also develops a tight, upright cluster of red berries.
