White Meadowsweet is a native shrub of moist meadows and prairie edges with erect branches bearing dense, pyramid-shaped clusters of tiny white flowers in summer. It blooms over a long period and is visited by an exceptional variety of native bees, wasps, and flies. It forms dense thickets that provide cover for nesting birds in wet meadow habitats.
