Fernbush

Overview

Fernbush (Chamaebatiaria millefolium), a hardy deciduous shrub growing 3-6 ft tall, is renowned for its fine, fern-like foliage and clusters of white, fragrant flowers blooming in summer. Preferring USDA zones 4-8, it thrives in full sun with well-draining soil. Drought-resistant once established, this low-maintenance plant is ideal for adding texture to water-wise gardens and attracting pollinators. It requires minimal pruning to maintain shape and health.
