Description
A native flowering shrub that will grow in almost every zone of the U.S., the Blackhaw Viburnum is a highly attractive shrub or small tree featuring abundant domed clusters of pretty white flowers in late spring or early summer that are followed by clusters of numerous blue-black berries, which are irresistible to song and game birds and other mammals, including humans! Ripe berries can be picked right off the bush and eaten fresh or used to make jams and jellies. This one can be grown as a large shrub from 12 to 15 feet tall or as a multi or single trunk small tree that can reach up to 25 feet in height. The stems are clothed in finely toothed leaves that emerge copper-colored in spring turning to dark green in summer and then finally to attractive shades of red and burgundy. A site to behold in bloom and one you’ll enjoy watching the birds and wildlife enjoy!
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 12 to 15 feet tall and 6 to 12 feet wide at maturity, the Blackhaw Viburnum can be grown as a large shrub or lower branches can be removed to form a very attractive small tree ideal for use as an eye-catching specimen or groupings in landscape and flowering shrub borders. Also useful to frame corners of homes and other structures. A fine addition to edible gardens, wildlife gardens, native gardens, white theme gardens and cottage gardens.
Suggested Spacing:Â 8 feet apart for solid hedge; 16 feet or more apart for space between plants.Â
Growing Preferences
Viburnum is very easy to grow in most any moist but well drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. It prefers a loamy soil rich in organic matter. As with so many other ornamental plants it does not like constantly soggy or wet conditions. Quite drought tolerant when established and we’ve seen no serious pest or disease problems. Deer haven’t touched it in our gardens. For best flowering, at least 5 hours of direct sunlight per day is suggested. Responds very well to pruning for shaping, size control and tree forming. Prune as needed immediately after flowering.

Really nice plant. Good size for a 3 gallon. Very healthy. It’s also been sat on my little planting backlog berm since it arrived a couple weeks ago and it’s still happy as a clam. I’ve ordered a handful of plants from Wilson and they all come looking great. Very good size for the container they’re in and healthy.————————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchases for years to come!
