LWS Linden Berry Shrub Cardinal Candy 10 Seeds USPS Shipping Viburnum dilatatum is commonly called linden viburnum because its leaves resemble those of the linden tree (Tilia). It is native to open forests, forest margins, lowlands, foothills and scrubby areas in China, Korea and Japan. It is an upright to rounded, deciduous shrub that typically matures to 8-10? tall and to 6-8? wide. Creamy white flowers (1/4? diameter) in showy, domed clusters (cymes to 5? wide) appear in late spring (May to early June). Flowers give way to ovoid bright red fruits (drupes to 1/3? long) that mature in late summer to early fall and persist on the shrub into early winter. Berries are attractive to birds. Orbicular to broad-ovate, wrinkled, dark green leaves (to 5? long) are coarsely toothed and pubescent on both sides. Leaves turn shades of bronze, burgundy and dull red in fall. Easily grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Prefers moist loams, but tolerates wide range of soils. Established plants have some drought tolerance. Prune as needed immediately after flowering. Single plants usually do not fruit well. For best fruit production, plant two or more V. dilatatum selections in close proximity to each other.
