This shrub is somewhat sprawling when young, but becomes more erect as it matures. It features green stems, medium green leaves with fine marginal teeth, inconspicuous 5-petaled greenish-yellow flowers from the leaf axils in May-June and warty crimson red fall fruits purportedly resembling strawberries hence the common name of strawberry bush. These fruits open revealing bright orange seeds inside, hence another common name of Hearts-a-Burstin’. (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
