Lindera praecox, the February spicebush, is a species of flowering plant in the family Lauraceae, native to southern China, and Japan.[1][2] A deciduous shrub typically 4.5 to 7.5 m (15 to 25 ft) tall, it is hardy to USDA Zone 8.[3] In the wild it is found in thickets on the slopes of hills and mountains, and on the banks of streams and lakes.[4] It is occasionally available from specialty nurseries.[5]
