Neviusia alabamensis, commonly known as Alabama Snow-Wreath, is a deciduous shrub native to the understory of forested areas, particularly those with limestone outcrops, in the Southeastern United States, including Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia. It typically grows to a height and width of 3-6 feet (0.9-1.8 meters), with a loose, spreading form that can add a naturalistic feel to garden settings. The plant is notable for its clusters of small, creamy white flowers that appear in spring, creating a frothy, snow-like effect. The flowers are not particularly showy, but they add a subtle charm to the landscape. After flowering, the plant produces inconspicuous fruit that does not contribute significantly to its ornamental value.

Alabama Snow-Wreath is valued for its ease of maintenance and its ability to thrive in a variety of conditions, including clay soils. It is often used in naturalized plantings, woodland gardens, and as a background plant in borders due to its informal appearance. It prefers full sun to part shade and requires medium amounts of water, with well-drained soils being ideal. While it is not known for having serious disease or pest issues, it can occasionally suffer from leaf spot. Alabama Snow-Wreath is not widely known or used in cultivation, which can make it a unique addition to a garden. It is not considered invasive and does not have aggressive roots, making it a safe choice for planting near structures or pathways.CC BY-SA 4.0
