Description
Oval and upright, Spicebush is a perfect plant for grouping as a backdrop or screen in any garden in almost any location since it tolerates shadier, moist conditions without missing a beat. Tiny yellow-green flowers emerge before this plant’s pungent foliage develops, providing early-season nectar to native bees and butterflies. Deep green leaves provide great summer cover for birds but it’s this plant’s red berries that have birds coming from far and wide to snack on, whether they are local natives or migratory birds passing through. Showy yellow fall foliage color will really stand out in the garden.
