Buttonwood

Buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus), also known as the Button Mangrove, is a hardy coastal tree native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas, including Florida, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. It features dense, glossy green foliage and small, button-like flowers, making it a popular choice for windbreaks, coastal landscaping, and urban greenery.

The Buttonwood symbolizes resilience and adaptability, thriving in salty, sandy soils and harsh coastal conditions while providing shade, erosion control, and natural beauty.
