Found this growing in the swamp. Got a nice little trunk.

I think it's Button bush. They like wet places.

Good for bonsai? Leaves seem big.

Agreed, looks like Cephalanthus occidentalis/button bush to me, pretty sure I've seen a few nice ones floating around the forum as bonsai.

I think I might just dig this one up from the swamp. The only problem is that it is a 3 hour trip
