Autumn Jazz Viburnum Hedge

In late spring to early summer, this deciduous shrub produces clusters of pretty, white flowers that bring in lots of butterflies. After the nonfragrant blossoms disappear, they are replaced by nearly black, berrylike fruits that birds enjoy eating. More hues emerge in fall, as its foliage turns gorgeous shades of orange. With a mature height of 8–10" and a similar spread when fully grown, it's an affordable choice for landscaping use as a tall hedge or for creating a natural privacy screen. Viburnum, which is native to eastern North America, is an easy-care shrub that tolerates a range of soils. It grows best in well-drained soil and where it can receive full sun to partial shade. Zones 3–8.
