Mohican wayfaring tree is a large shrub or small tree. It is an easy-to-grow plant with thick branches and oval grey-green leaves.
In late spring, it has clusters of creamy white flowers. Throughout the summer, the flowers mature into orange-red fruit that ripens to black. It is a great choice when a large, dense flowering shrub is needed. It also has nice orange-red fall leaf color.
It is smaller than wayfaringtree and produces fewer suckers.
Mohican wayfaring tree has been growing very well at the Cottonwood Creek Garden. It is a nice large shrub with dark green leaves and pretty flowers. It has been very low maintenance.
Prune to shape when young.
