We love this plant!! The leaves emerge orange and turn yellow and stay
|
||||||
|
lime green through the summer. The white umbel shaped flowers are just emerging,
|
||||||
|
and after keeping the bees happy they will turn to red berries that persist into winter.

The fall color is a vibrant yellow. Oh Canada Viburnum looked beautiful all season last year.
|
||||||
|
Its large size 6’ by 6’size makes it a great backdrop to perennials and smaller shrubs,
|
||||||
|
and makes a nice contrast to other dark green foliage plants.

Oh Canada Viburnum does
|
||||||
|
well in sun and part sun, and won’t burn like other light foliage in full sun.
|
||||||

Supplies are limited on the Oh Canada Viburnum this week, but it’s too amazing to not share.
