Red Feather® Arrowwood Viburnum — Viburnum dentatum 'J.N. Select'
Red Feather® Arrowwood Viburnum (Viburnum dentatum 'J.N. Select') is an outstanding GA native shrub that delivers exceptional four-season garden value — a hardy, rounded deciduous native shrub with glossy, boldly toothed dark green foliage that anchors the garden through the growing season before erupting into a spectacular bold dark red fall color display, while flat-topped clusters of creamy white flowers bloom in late spring and give way to clusters of dark purple drupes that persist through winter providing critical bird forage and striking ornamental contrast against bare winter stems. Extremely cold-hardy to Zone 2 and tolerant of a wide range of soil conditions, Red Feather® is one of the toughest and most adaptable GA native shrubs available — performing reliably in loamy, moist, well-drained soils and showing excellent drought tolerance once established. An exceptional choice for wildlife and native gardens, as the berries provide an important winter food source for birds. Full to part sun. Hardy to Zone 2.
