Viburnum Davidii 12 Litre Pot 50/60cm

Viburnum davidii – An Evergreen Classic with Striking Berries

Viburnum davidii is a compact, evergreen shrub (H 1–1.5 m) that brings structure and beauty to the garden throughout the year. Its glossy, deeply veined, dark green leaves create an elegant backdrop in every season. In late spring to early summer, clusters of tiny white flowers appear, subtly fragrant and attractive to pollinators. When both male and female plants are present, these are followed by striking, metallic-blue berries that sparkle like jewels against the evergreen foliage. Hardy (H5) and versatile, this shrub is easy to maintain and particularly valuable for year-round interest in smaller gardens, mixed borders, or as a low hedge.
