  • Description

  • Notes

Linden viburnum is a deciduous shrub with an upright, rounded habit growing about 8 to 10 feet tall and 6 to 10 feet wide. Leaves are more oval than in some viburnum, with a dark lustrous green color. Fall color is russet red to burgundy. White flowers appear in clusters in May to June, and are followed by berries that ripen to bright red in September and October, and frequently persist into December. Use in shrub or foundation borders, mass plantings, screens and hedges. Many cultivars are grown, selected for fall color or fruiting character.
