Blackhaw Viburnum Shrubs for Sale Online
Blackhaw Viburnum (Viburnum prunifolium) is a deciduous flowering shrub clothed in snow-white fragrant flowers when in bloom. It is a multi-stemmed shrub with attractive horizontal branching and good fall color. Blackhaw Viburnum blooms 2-4" white flowers in spring and shortly after the blooms appear, the flowers transition to pink and purple berry-like drupes. The serrated bright green leaves turn an outstanding purple-red in the fall, giving this viburnum year-round interest. It is easy to care for and should be pruned after flowering to ensure new buds form for the next season. Its fragrant flowers and berries attract wildlife to your yard, but deer tend to look the other way.
