One of the first to leaf out in the spring. Great shrub for wildlife (mason bees) and can reach an excess of 15 feet tall.

Fruiting is highly variable; only the female plants will bear the tiny mango-to-plum like drupes.

Indigenous peoples included osoberry in their diets, making a tea of the bark, and chewing its twigs to elicit a mild anesthetic and aphrodisiac ;)
