Buttonbush is a somewhat coarse, deciduous shrub with an open-rounded habit. Tiny, tubular, 5-lobed, fragrant white flowers appear in dense, spherical, long-stalked flower heads in early to mid-summer. Flower heads are very attractive to bees and butterflies. Flower heads mature into hard spherical ball-like fruits consisting of multiple tiny two-seeded nutlets. Fruiting heads usually persist throughout the winter.
