Frostweed, that is just utterly beautiful. That possumhaw deserves a name, and much wider use.

Please add images like this to threads on winter fruit displays in Trees & Shrubs, and Indigenous Plants.

Amazing... but I wonder how many babies pop up from all the seeds each year

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

Actually not many at all, the birds come in humongous flocks in late winter and devour all the berries.
I wish they would self seed more often.
