This perennial, deciduous shrub grows multiple, arching branches that reach 6 to 8 feet tall. It grows downy twigs, shiny leaves that turn yellow to red in the fall, and clusters of small, white flowers that give way to dark blue berries. This plant grows in full sun to shade, in dry to wet soils including sands. It is flood tolerant and attracts a variety of bird, mammal, and butterfly species.
