Mariessi Viburnum is a broad rounded multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with horizontal branching and dark green foliage that turns purplish-red in fall. Clusters of white flowers in double-file bloom in spring and give way to red berries in summer that mature to black. Flowers best with full sun and moist, lightly acidic well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
