Fiddlewood
Citharexylum spinosum
Fiddlewood is a delightful fast growing native large shrub or small tree. Fiddlewood is evergreen, with shiny deep green leaves and fragrant white blooms all year long! This plant is dioecious, so if you have a female plant you will also have orange berries throughout the year that birds adore! This wonderful plant can go in full sun or in shade and is drought tolerant once established. It has a moderate salt tolerance so can be planted in coastal uplands.
Fiddlewood can be used in a mixed hedge or as a specimen plant to make all the neighbors ask "What is that beauty covered in butterflies?!"
