Low-growing, Ceanothus americanus (New Jersey Tea) is a bushy, upright, deciduous shrub boasting oval clusters of tiny, fragrant, white flowers in spring. Lasting over a moderately extended period, they rise from the leaf axils at the end of the new shoots.
Ceanothus americanus, commonly called New Jersey tea, is a compact, dense, rounded shrub which typically grows 2-3' tall (less frequently to 4'). It is native to Missouri where it occurs in prairies, glades, dry open woods and thickets throughout the state (Steyermark).
This compact shrub is indigenous to woodland edges, prairies, and roadsides throughout much of the Mid-Atlantic.*. Although somewhat slow to establish, its extensive root system, drought tolerance, and ability to fix nitrogen make it an excellent choice for challenging garden sites.
New Jersey tea is used in masses for best effect, as a tall ground cover, or on steep slopes. While the flowers are remarkable on their own, it is also nectar source and a caterpillar and larva host, attracting an array of beautiful butterflies.
