Celtis Laevigata, commonly known as the sugarberry, southern Hackberry, or sugar hackberry, is a medium-sized tree native to North America. Sugar Hackberry is easily confused with the common Hackberry, but the sugar hackberry’s leaves are narrower with mostly smooth margins, the berries are juicier and sweeter,, and the bark is less corkycorky.

This tree species is frequently found in north Florida’s floodplain forests. It blooms in the spring and serves multiple uses, from erosion control to supporting wildlife as a butterfly and honey bee attractor. It is a larval host for several butterfly species, including the hackberry emperor and mourning cloak, and grows best on clay soils of broad flats or shallow sloughs within major southern river floodplains.​
