Pondberry (Lindera melissifolia)
Description
Pondberry occurs in dense thickets with erect or ascending shoots up to 2 m tall and few branches; stems are connected underground by stolons. Thickets of female plants tend to be smaller than those of males and are sometimes absent from populations. Die-back of stems is a fairly common occurrence.
