Come spring, the shrub’s emerging growth is red but can show variability. Small, fragrant white flowers appear in flat-topped clusters in late spring, and they serve as landing pads and feeding stations for butterflies. The flowers evolve into discreet purple berries that nourish feathered friends. The plant’s green leaves turn gold in autumn, a prelude to the highly decorative display of colorful stems to follow. ‘Midwinter Fire’ is included on the RHS list of Plants for Pollinators but will not interest deer.
