Viburnum tinus ‘Lisa Rose’ – Evergreen Colour and Elegance All Year Round
Viburnum tinus ‘Lisa Rose’ is a versatile evergreen shrub that provides beauty across the seasons. From autumn into spring, it produces clusters of pink-red buds that open into fragrant white flowers, offering a vital splash of colour in the darker months. These blooms are followed by striking metallic-blue berries, loved by birds and wildlife. Its glossy, deep green foliage creates an elegant backdrop all year, making it as practical as it is beautiful.
Compact and reliable, ‘Lisa Rose’ grows to around 2–3 m in height and spread, forming a dense, rounded shrub. Its long flowering season, combined with evergreen structure, makes it perfect for hedging, screening, or as a specimen shrub in borders and containers. Hardy to H5, it thrives in sun or partial shade and performs well in most well-drained soils.
