Prague Viburnum — Viburnum 'Pragense'

Prague Viburnum (Viburnum 'Pragense') is a magnificent, large-scale rounded evergreen shrub that delivers outstanding multi-season beauty — producing flat clusters of lightly fragrant creamy white flowers in spring that give way to a spectacular berry display of bright red fruits maturing to deep black in fall, while the elliptic dark green foliage transitions to rich burgundy, creating a stunning autumn composition of berries and foliage color simultaneously. A vigorous and adaptable hybrid of V. rhytidophyllum × V. utile, Prague Viburnum combines the best traits of its parents — excellent cold hardiness, semi-evergreen foliage retention, and outstanding year-round structure — in a large, bold shrub that is excellent for hedges, privacy screens, wildlife gardens, and naturalized areas. Drought-tolerant once established. Thrives in full to part sun with moist, slightly acidic, well-drained soils. Hardy to Zone 5.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Low Maintenance. Drought-tolerant once established. Prune immediately after flowering — flower buds form in summer, so late pruning will eliminate the berry display.
LANDSCAPE USES: Accents or Group Plantings, Borders, Naturalized Areas, Woodland Gardens, Wildlife Gardens, Privacy Screen, Hedges, Foundation Plantings, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS: Elderberry, Witch Hazel, Weigela
