Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • Description

  • Notes

Prague viburnum forms a dense, rounded shrub to about 10 feet tall and wide. Leaves are dark green. Pink buds open to creamy white, fragrant flowers in spring. Berries follow, maturing to red and then black, and frequently persisting into the winter. An attractive screen or hedge, or use for winter interest in the shrub or foundation border. In milder winters, it may retain its foliage as evergreen.
