Buy Sugar Shack® Buttonbush online. Buttonbush has long been prized as a fantastic native shrub, but it was way too big for most landscapes. Not anymore! We've cut the size in half and added colorful red fruit and glossy foliage. Add in cool looking, fragrant white flowers and you've got a delightful plant that shines from spring to fall.
