Want to enjoy buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis) everywhere? It's possible with the standard buttonbush. The bush does well in a pot thanks to its stem. This means that the plant is perfect on the patio or balcony as well as in the garden! The white globe-shaped flowers bloom in the summer. An added benefit: they attract insects!
The occidentalis is fairly winter-hardy, although it can be damaged by extreme frost. Position the plant in a sunny spot. The buttonbush prefers well-drained soil. Keep the soil slightly moist at all times, however, the plant can also handle being dry for a short period.
