Tolerating heat, drought, and poor soil. Its first display is a cloud of nicely spaced white flowers in springtime, looking loose and carefree in the garden. Those flowers turn into super showy clusters of berries, which ripen from yellow to orange to vibrant red. The color progression is fun to watch, and provides a feast for birds which is another show altogether! Foliage also turns a brilliant red in fall, turning it into a well-rounded showpiece for wild gardens and formal spaces alike.
