Clethra alnifolia

Summer sweet is a vase-shaped deciduous shrub, which features fluffy, bottle brush-like, 3-6″ spikes of extremely fragrant white flowers that are an extremely important nectar source in summer. Glossy, dark green leaves turn a rich yellow in autumn. Native plant commonly founded in moist woodlands. Used as accent, foundation or shrub border; good plant for heavily shaded or wet areas.
