Description:
Baneberry is a graceful little perennial found in the woods around the nursery. Delicate foliage emerges from underground in spring, soon followed by dainty white flowers. These are then followed in summer by bright red berries, adding a vivid splash of color to a woodland garden. Be aware that they are deadly toxic and should not be planted where children visit unsupervised.
