The dark green leaves are divided into 5-7 oval leaflets. In late spring and early summer, long, hanging racemes of lightly scented, bell-shaped white flowers tinged with pink emerge from pink buds.These are followed by inflated, pale green, lobed fruit, the bladder nuts of the name. Common bladdernut is an easy, low maintenance, trouble-free shrub.
