This deciduous, perennial shrub grows 6 to 12 feet high, with a similar width. The foliage is an attractive reddish-green during the spring before turning blue-green in the summer and red, orange, yellow, and purple in the fall. It produces clusters of white or pink, bell-shaped flowers followed by edible, blue to black fruit in late July to mid-August. This shrub is adaptable, growing in full sun to shade, and in dry to wet soils. It attracts a wide variety of wildlife, including birds and mammals that enjoy the berries, as well as browsers like deer that eat the foliage.
