Beautiful white flowers in spring followed by sweet purple fruit.
The edible fruit resembles the taste of a blueberry strawberry mix.
It can be used to make jams and jellies.
The fruit is also adored by cedar waxwings.
The bark is an attractive light gray.
The green foliage turns vivid shades of orange and red in fall.
Makes a great ornamental focal point.
