Staphylea trifolia or American Bladdernut is a small, sparsely branched, colony-forming tree with dark green leaves that grows in moist areas. The compound leaves have groups of three lance-shaped leaflets with lightly serrated margins. Drooping clusters of white, bell-shaped flowers that resemble those of blueberries bloom in the early Spring. These are followed by inflated, papery green seed capsules with multiple seeds rattling around inside. Will spread and sprout multiple trunks through root suckering, especially so in moist areas.
