Description

Viburnum dentatum, commonly known as Arrowwood Viburnum, is a deciduous shrub native to North America. It is appreciated for its dense, rounded form and glossy, dark green leaves that turn vibrant shades of red and purple in the fall. The plant produces flat-topped clusters of small white flowers in late spring to early summer, followed by blue-black berries that attract birds.

Suggested Uses

Arrowwood Viburnum is ideal for use in hedges, mixed borders, and naturalized areas. It can also serve as a privacy screen or windbreak. Its berries provide food for wildlife, making it a great choice for bird-friendly gardens.
