Viburnum are shrubs and small trees primarily used for their showy
fragrant flowers, seasonal leaf color, and ornamental fruit. These
deciduous shrubs provide a wonderful three-season show that creates a
dynamic quality for a year-round interesting garden.
They will
pollinate, bloom, and fruit individually, but they are much more
productive if planted in groups. They make excellent borders and
separating pieces for large landscape layouts. They also work well
along driveways and fences.
If given full sun and periodic
deep waterings Viburnum will become a very low-maintenance staple in
your garden layout. They are worry-free, hardy shrubs that are not
attractive to grazing animals like deer.
