Fetterbush (Lyonia lucida) is a long-lived perennial shrub known for its elegant, fragrant flowers, which range from white to soft pink hues. Growing 2 to 8 feet tall with a spread of 2 to 4 feet wide, this striking shrub thrives in well-drained, acidic, sandy soil and tolerates full sun to partial shade. While toxic to many mammals, Fetterbush is a magnet for bees, making it an excellent choice for pollinator gardens. Its hardiness and delicate blooms make it a wonderful option for Florida gardeners seeking both beauty and ecological value.
