plant sale text:Swamp doghobble is a small shrub in the Heath family that produces short wands of small, white urn-shaped flowers at the ends of its stems. It blooms just as its leaves are beginning to expand in the spring. Its thin, twisted stems give it an architectural appearance similar to some of our shrubby blueberries. At one time, it shared the genus of Leucothoe, but that genus has now been split to separate this deciduous species from the evergreen species.
