The bush anenome is a pleasantly fragranced shrub that can grow to 6-8 feet tall and 3-5 feet wide. It has glossy green leaves and white flowers with large yellow centers which attract bees and butterflies. It is native to the Sierra Nevada foothills, and can tolerate sun to part shade depending on location. It will adapt to many soils as long as they are well-draining. In nurseries, its ‘Elizabeth’ cultivar is often sold.
