Viburnum dentatum 'Autumn Jazz®'

Arrowwood Viburnum

'Ralph Senior'

Tips for Homeowners:

Prune as needed after flowering (leave flowers to allow for berries in the fall). This shrub does have a tendency to send up new shoots and spread.  Another Arrowwood variety in the near vicinity will help to cross pollinate and will increase berry production.

The awesome fall color, the white flowers and blue-black berries all work together to extend the season of this shrub.

  • Vase-shaped habit
  • Glossy green leaves in summer
  • Multi-colored fall color

Good shrub for naturalizing or using in difficult areas where spreading will be an advantage. Will grow best in eastern and central Kansas.

Interesting Notes about Arrowwood Viburnum:

Versitile and durable only partially describe this shrub because it can withstand very tough conditions.  It can handle heavy soils, and drastic changes in the weather and looks good doing it.  The white flowers in spring are followed by clusters of blue fruit that are not edible for humans, but are certainly a delicacy for birds.
