Nantucket Viburnum – Fragrance, Fruit, and Fall Foliage

Nantucket Viburnum (Viburnum × nantucket) is a multi-season beauty with upright, dense branching and a classic appeal. In late spring, it produces creamy white flower clusters with a subtle, sweet fragrance. Its broad form and foliage make it an excellent choice for screening or hedging.
