Walter's Dwarf Viburnum is a compact evergreen shrub with a dense mounding habit and small, ovate dark green leaves on red tinted stems. Tiny dome-clusters of fragrant white flowers bloom in spring, and give way to black berries in fall. Flowers best with afternoon shade in the South and moist, well-drained acidic soils. Walter's Dwarf is care free and disease resistant.
