Autumn Jazz® Arrowwood Viburnum
Viburnum dentatum ‘Autumn Jazz’
A tough, adaptable native shrub, Autumn Jazz® Arrowwood Viburnum offers multi-season interest and outstanding fall color. Creamy white flower clusters appear in late spring, followed by attractive blue-black berries that persist well into fall and provide food for birds and wildlife.
Through summer, the plant maintains lush dark green foliage before transforming into a spectacular mix of yellow, orange, and red tones in autumn.
