About

The Sandankwa Viburnum (Viburnum suspensum) is a versatile and hardy evergreen shrub known for its attractive foliage, fragrant flowers, and ornamental fruit. This plant is a popular choice among gardeners seeking an adaptable and low-maintenance shrub for various landscape applications.

The Overall Plant

The Sandankwa Viburnum is native to Japan and is prized for its adaptability to a wide range of growing conditions. This evergreen shrub typically reaches a height and spread of 6 to 12 feet, making it suitable for use as a specimen plant, hedge, or screen. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is tolerant of various soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils. The Sandankwa Viburnum is also drought-tolerant and resistant to many common pests and diseases, contributing to its low-maintenance reputation.

The Flowers

One of the most appealing features of the Sandankwa Viburnum is its fragrant, tubular flowers. The plant produces clusters of small, creamy-white flowers in spring, adding a delicate and sweet fragrance to the garden. These blooms attract a variety of pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, adding life and movement to the landscape. After the flowering period, the plant produces its decorative fruit.

The Fruit

Following the blooming season, the Sandankwa Viburnum produces small, red berries that mature to a deep, glossy black. These ornamental fruits add a striking visual contrast to the plant's dark green, leathery foliage, and provide an important food source for birds and other wildlife. The fruit typically persists on the branches throughout the fall and winter months, adding visual interest during a time when many other plants have lost their leaves and blooms.
