Introducing Styrax officinalis Snowdrop Bush, a unique shrub with a relaxed form and thin elliptical leaves. This deciduous shrub produces small, white drooping flowers in clusters of 3 to 8, and thrives in heat and summer drought. It is native to southern Europe and the Middle East and is the official source of styrax, an ancient herbal medicine. This highly perfumed balsamic gum is obtained from the branches and stems and is occasionally used as a condiment. Styrax officinalis is a must-have for any herbal enthusiast, and its unusual distribution from California to Israel makes it an exciting addition to any garden.
