Description: Low, thicket-forming shrub with dramatic large green leaves, 10-20cm across. Large showy white flowers give way to a sizeable raspberry-like fruit, edible but bland. Works well as an understory planting, can grow under spruce and prefers shade.

Notes: Can spread, so make sure you have room for it and that the space has been designed for proper use as an understory plant.
