Sweet Talker Viburnum is a dense multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with an upright habit and highly glossed bright green leaves that take on purple burgundy tones in winter. Its spice-honey scented clusters of small soft pink flowers bloom in late winter and early spring. Flowers best with full sun and moist, lightly acidic well-drained soils. Sweet Talker has improved heat tolerance.
