Yellowroot is a native deciduous shrub with a suckering bushy habit and glossy green foliage with toothed lobes that turns an attractive mix of yellow and red in fall. Droopy airy panicles of tiny maroon flowers bloom in spring. Grows best in part sun with moist well-drained acidic soils. Tolerates a wide condition of soils- from wet to dry, clay soils, and full sun to full shade.

NOTE: It can spread indefinably in ideal conditions, plant in a contained area with a border, or in full sun with dry soil to control spread.
