Otherwise known as Red Elderberry, this treelike shrub grows 8 to 20 feet tall. It produces fragrant, pale, cone-shaped flowers at the ends of stem branches, followed by bright red or purple fruit clusters. The berries are enjoyed by a variety of wildlife, though they can be poisonous to humans if eaten raw. This shrub prefers moist to wet soil, and can grow in full sun to shade.
