Viburnum sargenti 'Onondaga'

Onondaga Sargent Viburnum

Onondaga Viburnum (Viburnum sargentii ‘Onondaga’) begins the growing season with maroon new leaves. Its flower clusters have a ring of larger white flowers around a center of small pinkish blooms.

Reddish buds add contrast before the flowers open. Multiple upright stems create a substantial shrub, with occasional red fruit adding a later detail.

Plant in sun or partial shade, with space for the upright framework to develop.
