Viburnum lantanoides
Hobblebush is a native woodland shrub prized for its showy white flower clusters in spring and brilliant red-to-purple fall foliage. It prefers cool, moist, acidic soil in a shaded or partly shaded setting and grows slowly, making it ideal for a low-maintenance woodland or naturalized garden. Ensure consistent moisture, especially in the first few years after planting.
