Arrowwood | Viburnum dentatum
A shrub with white flower clusters and blue to black berries that are pollinator magnets in the spring and invaluable food for birds in the autumn and winter. Often used for hedges and wildlife habitat and displays a multi-stemmed habit of arrow straight trunks. In the fall the foiliage is a beautiful deep red wine color. Loves a nice wet spot but can tolerate occasional drought. Unfortunately, it is highly susceptable to Viburnum Leaf Beetle (a non-native, invasive from Asia) so more care will be needed to protect it if infestations start to occur. Larval host to the Spring Azure Butterfly.
*Price includes a $5 returnable deposit for the fancy pot*
