Viburnum sargentii 'Onondaga'

Description

A selected form of this species, superficially similar to both V. opulus and V. trilobum. Yet this cultivar is decidedly different, with foliage that emerges in spring with a handsome dark purplish blush, creating a wonderful backdrop to very pretty clusters of white flowers surrounded by fertile bracts. Autumn coloration a deep maroon. An excellent choice as an upright and sturdy element in the mixed border, to 8 ft. tall by 4 ft. wide, in full sun and any soil.
