Titi (Cyrilla racemiflora) is one of the emblematic plants of South Georgia, and blooms throughout the summer. It is though to have medicinal uses. There’s even a town named for the plant [Ty Ty, in Tift County]. In case you’re not from the South and were wondering, it’s pronounced tie-tie.
Is this also called a Button tree? My great granddaddy use to make medicine by boiling the root & making a tea for whooping cough.
Beautiful!
And the town , TyTy is pronounced the same ! Good photo .
