Aside from the beauty of the delicate flower panicles, of the fine decorative red fruits

This strong-growing, sprawling bush, which is covered from July on through the 
Summer with lilac-like spikes of bloom, has an appropriate common name, for through 
the bright sunny days the butterflies swarm about it, fluttering for an advantageous 
position, and then draining the tiny trumpets of their sweets, showing their contentment 
with gently waving wings.

A shrub that grows rapidly and blooms in August—pink bunches of tiny flowers. 
In Autumn the slender branches are so weighted with lilac-colored fruit that they arch 
over and bend to the ground.
