This deciduous suckering shrub features delicate white flowers in May or June, followed by eye-catching inflated yellowish fruits to 1". Its opposite compound leaves have three 2" leaflets, and the plant is native to Japan, Korea, and China, where it grows in woods and along streams. Staphlea bumalda is easy to grow in sun or part shade, and is capable of tolerating a wide range of soils so long as they are not too dry.
