This evergreen shrub with dark foliage and fragrant flower clusters is very effective as a landscape accent, mass planting, or combined with azalea and rhododendron. Leaves turn bronze with cold weather. Adapts to full sun or shade. Prefers acid (sour) to slightly alkaline (sweet) soil. Deer resistant.

Adaptable and dependable four-season garden interest. Most viburnum offer large flowers that attract butterflies, thick summer foliage, and berries and vibrant fall foliage that attract birds. Nice with fir, rhododendron, crocosmia and variegated periwinkle. Prefers well-drained soil.

This lovely accent tree is prized for its beautiful deep reddish-purple leaf color and rounded form. Makes a magnificent specimen or a perfect small landscape tree for entrances or patios. Attractive fall color extends the season. Virtually care-free.
