Grows in full sun or partial shade. Grows best in moist, well-drained acidic sites. Tolerates a wide range of soil types from sand to clay and can tolerate dry conditions. Showy yellow-green flowers emerge at springtime in clusters on female trees. Flowers become small bluish-black berries that mature in September.
