Actaea

Common Name: White Baneberry

Actaea is a North American native perennial that is grown for its unusual white berries on red stems in summer. These berries are beautiful, but poisonous if eaten which is why wildlife will stay away. Commonly found in the woods or a northern slope where it's shady. Berry clusters will persist until frost creating late summer interest.
