A vigorous grower, ‘Wyldewood’ has massive 12-inch white flowers that are surrounded by green lance-shaped foliage. Blooms have a lemony scent and open from June through July. By August, clusters of purple-black fruits emerge over the entirety of the plant. Use the berries or leave them on the plant for birds to feast on. Fruit is high in Vitamin C and can be used to make jellies, jams, or and wine!

Birds, bees, and butterflies are attracted to the flowers and berries. A great choice for a yard, as a border bush, or in the garden!
