A fall-blooming, deciduous shrub that is native to woodlands, forest margins and stream banks. It typically grows 15-20’ tall with a similar spread in cultivation. Clusters of fragrant bright yellow flowers, each with four crinkly, ribbon-shaped petals, appear along the branches from October to December, usually after leaf drop but sometimes at the time of fall color. Fertilized flowers will form fruit over a long period extending through winter and into the following growing season. Fruits are greenish seed capsules that become woody with age and mature to light brown. Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Best flowering in full sun. Prefers moist, acidic, organically rich soils. Tolerates heavy clay soils.
Low-growing shrub that does well in dry shade under oak trees. It is not grown for its flowers but for the pure white berries that appear in late summer and persist through most of the winter. Attracts birds. If allowed, it will sucker and spread making it good for stabilizing slopes. Best grown in medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Deer resistant.
