Buttonbush | Cephalanthus occidentalis
A shrub with spherical, ornamental white flowers. Prefers wet, swampy areas. This plant is a pollinator’s delight attracting myriad of insects while in bloom and providing late-season forage for wetland birds. Its habit is irregular and twisting, rarely conforming to the standard imposed by modern horticulturists. Despite the free-form nature of this plant, it will make any wetland garden pop.
Sun: Partial Shade-Shade
Region of Origin: Eastern USA
Container Size: 3 gal
