Plant of the Week 70

Plant of the Week 70 is an under-used North American native shrub or understory tree.

POTW70 has many cousins in the large genus to which it belongs, and several of those cousins are popular landscape plants, but none are as adaptable and tough as Plant of the Week 70.

POTW70 features white blossoms in Spring. Dense growth and sharp spur-branches make POTW70 excellent for hedging and habitat. Birds and Michael Dirr relish POTW70's berries. Best of all is POTW70's fall color.

Private message me with your guess. Don't post your answer in the thread!

Not only is this a great plant for fall color and attracting birds- the deer do not bother it.
