Every summer (mid-late July for us here in Michigan), it explodes in these amazing, perfectly spherical white blooms which give off a sweet honey scent on the air. They are irresistible to butterflies and other pollinators. What's special about Sugar Shack buttonbush (\u003cem\u003eCephalanthus occidentalis\u003c\/em\u003e) is that it's a fraction of the size of conventional buttonbush - it's perfectly sized even for small yards. After the flowers fade, they leave behind bright red fruits that bring color and beauty clear through the first frost. Very glossy foliage keeps it eye-catching beyond its bloom time as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant Sugar Shack buttonbush on its own as a commanding specimen, or group together as a hedge or backdrop to your pollinator garden. This durable native plant is unbothered by deer and grows well even in very wet soils. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVital details:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 4-5' tall and wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLight:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e full sun (6+ hrs\/day), part sun (4-6 hrs\/day)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAverage moisture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e USDA zone 4-10 (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.greatgardenplants.com\/pages\/shopping-by-zone\" title=\"Find your hardiness zone\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFind your hardiness zone\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePollinator value: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eattracts butterflies and other pollinating insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNotable features: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProven Winners,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e fragrant, native, deer resistant, good for hedges.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Benefits from a good 2-3\" layer of shredded bark mulch.
