Description / Cephalanthus First Editions® Fiber Optics™
Fiber Optics™ boasts unique round, white flowers that are both long lasting and fragrant. It is native from Florida to Mexico and north to Nova Scotia and Ontario, buttonbush is quite happy in moist conditions, tolerating flooding and wet spring soil. As such it is often used in wetland restoration work, along streams and pond banks. It's also a great plant for low areas in the landscape that don't dry out until late in the season. Pollinators love the fragrant, creamy white, ball shaped flowers and many species of birds will come to eat the seed. Fill your landscape with life and add this buttonbush!
