Viburnum davidii

A hardy and dependable evergreen shrub, valued for its distinctive dark green, deeply veined foliage that forms a neat, domed shape year-round. In spring clusters of small white flowers emerge above the foliage, often followed by striking turquoise-blue berries in autumn, particularly when male and female plants are grown nearby for pollination.

Ideal for foundation planting, massed borders or as a low hedge, it thrives in a sunny to partially shaded spot with well-drained soil. Its tidy, compact habit makes it especially useful in urban gardens or low-maintenance landscapes.

Reliable and easy to grow in New Zealand conditions, a great choice for adding structure, texture and seasonal interest throughout the year.
