Growing Tips: This plant is primarily grown as an ornamental, but it's also valued for its small, round, edible, sour berries that is most often used in preserves. This is a low maintenance shrub, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It is a good choice for attracting birds to your yard, while being not attractive to deer. It tends to fill out right to the ground, and is suitable for planting under power lines.
