Viburnum Variegatum

Description

A reasonably hardy evergreen shrub with a bushy growing habit and lovely foliage colour throughout the year, the Viburnum tinus ‘Variegatum’ or Laurustinus is a variegated variety as the name suggests. The leaves ovate and mind-green with cream-yellow margins year-round. The plant carries flat clusters of small pink buds which bloom into cream-white flowers from late Winter through to Spring. The flowers are followed by small black berries.

Plant in any moderately fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil. Can be planted in any light, sunny or shaded. Water occasionally. Tolerant of coastal areas but may require a sheltered position to protect from harsher weather. Avoid eating berries as they can upset the stomach.
