A medium to large shrub reaching 6-10' tall with an equal width, however, new stems can easily be eliminated to keep a narrow form. Often used as a corner plant in entries for a tropical feel. Large (to 16") dark green, widely palmate leaves loom out gracefully from the stems. 18" panicles of milky white flowers appear October to November, followed by clusters of small shiny black fruit. Does well in partial to deep shade and prefers moist acidic, high organic soils. Protect from strong winds. Excellent choice for shaded courtyards and containers.

Bold foliage for a shady spot. This garden workhorse is perfect for the hard to maintain area. Evergreen, multi-stemmed shrub to 10 ft with glossy green, palmate leaves, often up to 10” across. Whitish flowers (not so showy, but 'interesting’ and great good for birds) are followed by black berries. A staple of area dentist office landscapes that can be transformed and transforming in the garden. Regular summer water. Fully frost hardy in USDA zone 8.
