White baneberry is a perennial herb stemming from a robust rhizome. It's distinguished by clusters of small white flowers that evolve into white berries with a conspicuous black dot, giving a 'doll's eyes' appearance. The compound leaves are toothed and primarily basal, growing in threes. This plant has an upright stature, typically reaching 1.5 to 2.5 feet (45 to 75 cm) in height. Toxicity is notable in all plant parts, with berries and roots being especially hazardous. White baneberry thrives in the dappled shade of forested areas, away from wetland environments.
