In the spring, it produces flat clusters of white lace-cap flowers that are attractive to pollinators.

If pollination is successful, bright red fruits ripen in late summer, just before the leaves turn shades of red and yellow and drop in fall. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe berries can be used as a cranberry substitute and will be milder and sweeter if they've gone through a few frosts to help soften them.
