A dense, rounded evergreen shrub with glossy green leaves that emerge bronze, fragrant clusters of white to pale pink spring flowers and blue-black berries. It grows 4–6 ft tall and wide in full sun to light shade and moist, well-drained soil; established plants tolerate some drought. Give it good air circulation to reduce leaf spot. Birds feed on the berries and pollinators visit the flowers.
