Viburnum acerifolium
Description
Viburnum acerifolium, commonly known as Mapleleaf Viburnum, is a deciduous shrub native to North America. It is known for its attractive maple-like leaves, which turn vibrant shades of red and purple in the fall. The plant produces clusters of small white flowers in late spring, followed by blue-black berries that attract birds.
Suggested Uses
This versatile shrub is ideal for woodland gardens, naturalized areas, and as a part of mixed borders. Its fall foliage and berries provide seasonal interest, and it can also be used for erosion control on slopes.
