Long‑lived and quietly elegant, it carries white flowers that give way to showy black fruits, both of which add subtle beauty throughout the year. Its leaves release a pleasant aroma, making the tree as enjoyable to smell as it is to see. Swamp Bay thrives in full to part sun and prefers moist to somewhat moist soils, tolerating everything from sand and loam to rich organic soil, as long as conditions remain acidic. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tree is especially valuable for wildlife: it serves as a larval host plant for the Palamedes Swallowtail and the Spicebush Swallowtail. Its flowers attract bees, while its dark fruits are eagerly eaten and dispersed by birds, making Swamp Bay a strong choice for anyone hoping to create a vibrant, ecologically supportive landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eTree, evergreen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eSize: 15-30 ft. tall\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none white-space-prewrap\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eFlower: White\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eFruit: Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eExposure: Full to part sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eMoisture: Remains moist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eSoil: Sand, loam, organic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eSoil pH: Acidic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eLarval host for Palamedes Swallowtail and Spicebush Swallowtail\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eAttracts bees\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\/mp\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Red Wagon Native Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":42258075910199,"sku":"26012919","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3 Gallon","offer_id":42258075942967,"sku":"26050102","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/5768\/5559\/files\/NoPlantPhoto_BT_1_5ebb1ff6-430e-4c5b-953f-55fcfd8f2d98.jpg?v=1762435792","url":"https:\/\/littleredwagonnativenursery.com\/products\/swamp-bay-persea-palustris-1g-3g","provider":"Little Red Wagon Native Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
