This versatile shrub also lights up with clusters of white blooms that stand out against its even, medium-green foliage in summer. Bees and butterflies love these petite flowers, and you will love that blooms often signal the coming of the Chicago Lustre®'s blue-black berries.
The Chicago Lustre® Arrowwood Viburnum, like other Viburnums, will ignite your autumn with spectacular shades of reds, yellows, and oranges!
