Looking for a versatile, low-maintenance garden shrub? Let us introduce you to viburnum!
.
Viburnums offer year-round interest with spring to summer blooms, vibrant fall color (on deciduous types) and colorful winter berries.
.
Zones 2-11, depending on variety.
.
Viburnums are also prized for their showy ornamental fruits that add color and interest in winter, and are an important food source for birds. Fruits are usually spherical or ovoid in shape, and may be red, pink, purple, blue or black. Most viburnums aren’t self-pollinating and will need a little help to produce fruit. Plant 2 or 3 together for cross pollination to stimulate abundant production.
.
Tip: Plant now for a showy spring!
