Unique Blue Fruit attracts Songbirds
Looking for something unusual? Try Viburnum Blue Muffin in your landscape. It can be used as a hedge, border, foundation, or specimen plant and thrives in full sun to partial shade. In spring, it blooms with beautiful non-fragrant white flowers. From summer to fall it will attract songbirds with its signature blue fruit provided a pollinator is planted nearby. Plant in multiples for best chance of berry production. This shrub is salt and deer-resistant and can tolerate Black Walnut trees. Fun fact: Native Americans reportedly used the straight stems of this species for arrow shafts, hence the common name.

Viburnum General Information

Viburnum are a diverse group of shrubs used widely in the garden or in foundation plantings. They offer a range of shapes, foliage colors, flower shapes and fruits that are especially desired by birds. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Viburnum Plant Care

Minimal pruning needed. To shape, prune after blooms have faded. Plant in groups for optimum berry production.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
