  • Description

  • Notes

'Nanum' is a cranberrybush viburnum selected for its very compact, very dense, low-growing ways, reaching maybe 2 to 2.5 feet tall and just slightly wider. It has small, glossy green, trilobed leaves that display a golden yellow to orange fall color. Flowering and fruit production are sporadic, okay, practically non-existent - the price of selecting its primary characteristic. Useful in smaller spaces, parking islands, or at the fridges of larger shrubs where some greenery would be nice.
