Buttonbush / Honeyball Shrub White Flower Hummingbirds
The Buttonbush is a fragrant woody shrub with ball-shaped flower heads that are very unique! They are great near ponds and streams, and water birds such as ducks enjoy eating their seeds.
They are also a host plant for the Sphinx Moth and a nesting site for songbirds. As if that is not enough, they also attract HUMMINGBIRDS!

yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
