Southern Blackhaw

Southern or Rusty Blackhaw Viburnum (Viburnum rufidulum) is a native North American shrub or small tree celebrated for its glossy, dark green foliage and striking seasonal changes. In spring, it produces clusters of creamy white flowers, followed by dark blue berries that attract birds and wildlife. The name “rusty” comes from the reddish-brown hairs on its buds and leaf undersides. In fall, its leaves turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and purple. Drought-tolerant and adaptable to various soils, it thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it an excellent choice for naturalized landscapes, hedges, or specimen planting.
