This native, evergreen shrub has a fibrous root system with a deep penetrating taproot which makes it a good choice for erosion control. Winterfat attracts birds and its ornamental seed heads are a point of interest in dried arrangements. Male and female flowers grow on the same plant but are arranged separately and bloom from mid-spring to summer.
