Interesting Notes:

Native to Ontario and much of eastern North America.

The white berries have a single, black dot which resembles an old-fashioned, china-doll-like eye. Because the foliage is toxic, it is resistant to most mammalian herbivores, however, it is harmless to birds, its main seed distributor.

White Baneberry Growing and Maintenance Tips
