Styrax americanus / AMERICAN SNOWBELL
Styrax americanus, commonly known as American Snowbell, is a small, deciduous tree or shrub renowned for its graceful, fragrant white flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. The bell-shaped flowers, which resemble snowflakes, dangle in clusters from slender branches, creating a delicate, airy display that is highly attractive to pollinators like bees. The tree’s dark green leaves provide a lush backdrop throughout the growing season, transitioning to yellow in the fall, adding seasonal interest. American Snowbell thrives in partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soils, making it a perfect choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or areas with consistently moist conditions. With its beautiful blossoms, pleasant fragrance, and relatively low-maintenance needs, Styrax americanus is an elegant addition to any landscape.
