Buttonbush, aka Cephalanthus occidentalis, is one of Massachusetts' ecological superheroes! This native shrub offers food and shelter for many animals and is a pollinator's dream. Now's a great time to plant some, too!

Strong root system for our Cephalanthus occidentalis (Buttonbush). An excellent alternative to the invasive butterfly bush. Loves wet soil and attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. Songbirds and waterfowl eat seeds. Host plant for some sphinx moths. Planted today #buttonbush

Nothing lasts, nothing stays
Caught in this procession of unchanging days
What's new is old, what's old is gone
You're pushed up to the edge, so put your wingsuit on
