A versatile evergreen shrub featuring colorful copper-red new growth that matures to glossy deep green. Clusters of pinkish-white, bell-shaped flowers appear in spring, followed by sweet, edible blue-black berries in late summer. The berries are excellent fresh or for jams, preserves, and baking, while the evergreen foliage provides year-round interest. Grows as a dense, compact shrub in full sun or a taller, more open form in shade.
