About Blackhaw
Blackhaw is a treasure native to eastern North America that belongs in your garden. This lovely shrub or small tree gives you beautiful white flowers in spring that attract pollinators, and then produces dark blue berries in fall that birds absolutely love. The foliage turns a gorgeous reddish-purple in autumn, giving you color from multiple seasons. It's a perennial that keeps coming back year after year, making it a dependable friend in the landscape.
Growing blackhaw is wonderfully easy and low-fuss. It adapts well to different soil types and light conditions, so you don't need perfect circumstances to succeed. Plant it where you can enjoy those spring blooms and fall colors, and water it regularly until it gets established. After that, this tough native will thrive with minimal care. You'll love watching the wildlife enjoy the berries and flowers.
