Displaying creamy white snowballs of tiny blooms and dramatic deep-dark green, textured foliage, the Prague Viburnum (Viburnum x 'Pragense') is a high-impact shrub that can remain evergreen in mild winters! Maintaining that intense glossy foliage, with silvery undersides, gives your garden year-round privacy and presence, plus so much more!
The dramatic backdrop of foliage welcomes spring with clusters of pinkish buds that burst into rounded bouquets of dainty white flowers. Of course, the creamy-white blooms of flowering Viburnum shrubs bring the butterflies! You'll be amazed how popular your shrubs are with bees too! Upright and rounded growth, these are gorgeous even in cold growing zones when they drop their leaves.
These delightfully fragrant, snowballs soon give way to bright red ornamental berries that birds go crazy for! Prague Viburnum’s foliage is readily pruned and sheared into hedges, windbreaks, hedgerows and fantastic privacy that shelters not just you, but your wildlife too!
Planting and Application:
Prague Viburnum are bird-friendly shrubs, while the colorful berries provide winter interest, they also lure wildlife with easy nutrition. Birds adore them for shelter and nesting too, but they are not a deer’s favorite food source. Rows and groupings of these low-maintenance plants backdrop your property in dramatic green and highlight all other plants you place before them.
Viburnum's stylish form and attractive foliage make them a top choice to use for hedging and specimens. Year-round privacy and screening from broadleaf evergreens mean having a backyard that feels peaceful and serene! Screen off your front yard with a row of blooming shrubs like no other.
