V. dentatum 'Moonglo'
Moonglo Arrowwood Viburnum A new, interesting plant that will be in great demand, introduced by Moon Nurseries of Pennsylvania. A very unique rounded form of Arrowwood reaching 8' tall and 8' wide. The flowers of this cultivar are very interesting: creamy-white but rather than flat like the species, they have a rounded form. The stamens stand erect above the flowers giving it a puffball effect. As the flowers age, they look like cinnamon was sprinkled on top. Fruit is blue in late August and early September, born in clusters that are a tight rounded form, mimicking the shape of the flower cluster. If that isn't enough, the foliage is lustrous dark green and the largest of the species and more rounded that the species. Once this plant catches on, you won't be able to get enough. Zone 4 |

V. dentatum 'Pearle Bleu'
Pearl Blue Arrowood Viburnum Colorful fruit is the selling point of this cultivar.

Great for attracting birds. Zone 3 |
