Hey guys, it's Bailey with TN Nursery, and I wanted to show y'all our button bush. Now these button bush are a native swampland bush, but you can see here it's dry and they thrive anywhere because they are a native. Look, pollinators go crazy over them. If you want butterflies, this is the shrub to use. This is the only shrub I use in my landscaping because of just the beauty of it. I love everything about it. I love the shiny foliage, and I love, uh, look at these. These are just so cute. It's like little buttons. And I love the bloomed ones too, because look at this, it's like a thousand little flowers in a ball. And I love looking at the wildlife that comes to them. Butterflies just eat them up, and they also support a real rare type of butterfly. I'm not— I don't remember what the name of them is, but we've just now been able to get these back in stock. These are probably all sold unless the website will let you order them, but I know that since we've got them back, everybody's been wanting them. They're a wonderful privacy hedge, beautiful in front of your house. They're, they're my favorite bush that we offer, and they're good in dry soil, but they love wetlands. They love wetlands. If you got a little swampy area that you've always wanted to do something with, this is the shrub to do it with. And look, they're beautiful, and I love looking at the pretty butterflies they lure in. Look, there's a little honeybee right there. There's a little butterfly. They're beautiful. They blow— I believe they blow privet, and I love them more than I love crepe myrtle. I just love everything about this beautiful shrub, and it's a native. So hardy, disease resistant, everything that's good, this shrub is. I like them better than hydrangeas. We've got these posted on the website. We've just got them back in stock. I don't know if they're still in stock, but if they're listed, then they are. And they're beautiful. They have— they're multi-stems, you know, so they're gorgeous.
