The highly fragrant, showy blossom of Viburnum shrubs make them a delight in any garden, especially when positioned near a path or at the front of a border to fully enjoy the intoxicating spring scent. The flowers are followed by ornamental fruits and the green foliage turns pretty autumn colours for added interest later in the year.
This is a lovely range of Viburnum shrubs which have been specially selected because they are all real show stoppers. Viburnum look lovely in borders or beds, but equally can hold their own as a focal point when in flower. The flowers have 5 petals and are arranged in corymbs that make a big impact in any sized garden. The attractive foliage varies between varieties and creates a good foil to the flowers.

Viburnum provide value to various forms of wildlife that make use of their flowers, berries and the protection these shrubs offer.
