Conoy Burkwood Viburnum is a compact spreading multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with dense branching and glossy wrinkled dark green leaves that turn maroon in fall. Large flat clusters of creamy white flowers bloom in spring and give way to bright red berries that mature to black in fall. Flowers best with full sun and moist, lightly acidic well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established. Foliage is evergreen in the South but will still earn fall color.
