Black Haw is a large shrub that grows around 12 to 15 feet tall and takes on a vase-like structure. It often blooms prolifically in March and April with large white flower heads. These flowers later transform to conspicuous, dark drupes (berry-like fruits) that hang on the plant in autumn in clusters. Black Haw grows well both in sunny, open areas and as an understory species in wooded locations with scattered light throughout the day. Black Haw is a host plant for a variety of caterpillars including Hummingbird Clearwing Moths. Deer Resistant.
