Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus, commonly known as Korean Eleuthero or Wangrangkura, is a remarkable deciduous shrub, celebrated for its robustness and adaptability. Native to the lush, humid undergrowths of Manchuria, China, and Korea, it was introduced to St. Petersburg in 1860 and has since become one of the hardiest shrubs from East Asia. Resilient against premature growth caused by winter warmth, this shrub is an ideal choice for gardens that demand both elegance and minimal maintenance. Korean Eleuthero grows vigorously, forming a broad, foliage-rich pyramid up to 12 feet high and 24 feet wide, with striking inky black fruits that stand out against the landscape. Its leaves, consisting of three to five irregularly toothed leaflets, are pleasantly harsh to touch. The plant's eye-catching, almost stalkless, globular clusters of brown-purple flowers bloom in July and August, while the young leaves are edible as cooked vegetables. Thriving in damp soils but adaptable to medium conditions, it prefers sun or part shade. With its forgiving nature, Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus is perfect for both novice and expert gardeners.
