5 Seeds Lindera obtusiloba Spicebush Shrub Ornamental Woodland Plant

Lindera obtusiloba, commonly called spicebush, is a deciduous woodland shrub grown for its glossy, lobed foliage and its subtle seasonal interest. It brings an understated elegance to shaded borders and naturalized areas, and its neat habit suits gardeners who appreciate refined, low-key plantings.
In the landscape it works well as an understory shrub, in mixed shrub borders, or in woodland and shade gardens where its layered branches and clean foliage add texture. It prefers consistent moisture and shelter from harsh winds, and it develops a rounded, spreading form over time.
