It describes the plant’s size (6 in‑2 ft tall and wide), growth habit (dense clusters, multiple stems, twiggy branches), leaf shape (simple lanceolate, alternate, serrated), flower form (bell‑shaped), and fruit (sweet berries ranging from bright blue to bluish‑black, edible by humans and wildlife). Root structure is shallow and fibrous with a long taproot, and stems have a reddish hue. The speaker notes that a single bud can produce many flowers and a strong stem can hold several buds. Habitat preferences include open conifer woods, sandy or rocky balds, and old fields, with the species thriving after infrequent wildfires that create openings.
