Viburnum plicatum is a dense, deciduous shrub known for its distinctive tiered, horizontal branching habit. It typically reaches heights of 8 to 15 feet with a slightly larger spread. The dark green, ovate leaves feature a unique pleated texture and transform into brilliant shades of burgundy and purple during autumn. Ideal for specimen planting or hedges, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. Its showy white flower clusters attract various pollinators.
