   &#160;&#160; There is at least one large buttonbush bush at the former Hugonin estate on McNabs Island, across Halifax Harbour from Point Pleasant Park. I assume that it had been planted there. There is a history of use of this shrub in gardening...

   <br/>&#62; It&#39;s an Atlantic Coastal Plain species. &#39;Not sure if it has been 
   <br/>&#62; reported for Halifax Co. It is not listed as such in the MTRI guide 
   <br/>&#62; (2011).

   <br/>&#62; I revisited the site today (Sep 5th). There are two large plants. The 
   <br/>&#62; area was trampled and it appearred people had been picking the flowers.
