Description
A 2006 Plant Select® Winner. 5-6' tall x 6-8' wide. Chamaebatiaria millefolium (Fernbush) is a choice native shrub that blooms in mid-summer with fragrant spikes of white flowers followed by ornamental seed heads that ripen to bronze. The semi-evergreen, fern-like foliage is deep olive-green in color and very attractive.

Native over much of the western US, it is highly adaptable and grows in poor soils and dry conditions.
