Viburnum tinus – Laurustinus 80/100cm Root Ball

Viburnum tinus, or Laurustinus, is a hardy, evergreen shrub prized for its dense foliage, winter flowers, and wildlife value. Its glossy, dark green leaves form a reliable screen, while from autumn through spring clusters of fragrant white flowers emerge from deep pink buds, bringing welcome colour in the colder months. Metallic blue-black berries follow, feeding birds and adding extra interest.

Supplied as root ball plants at 80/100cm, Viburnum tinus offers more established growth and faster impact than smaller sizes, making it ideal for medium-height hedges and evergreen structure in gardens and landscapes. It is versatile, shade-tolerant, and thrives in coastal, rural, or urban settings.
