This common shrub changes the shape of it's leaves while maturing.
The juvenile leaves are rounded, while the adult leaves resemble those of the oak tree in shape.

Dainty pink flowers appear in July, which accent the blue-green foliage and produce large white berries in autumn. Excellent food for birds. Good for holding soil on steep banks, as it will spread 3'-6' and grow 5' to 6' tall. Prefers light sun and moist conditions. Zones 3-7
