Viburnum x burkwoodii
Attractive semi-evergreen shrub with beautiful lustrous black-green leaves, greyish below. Clusters of spicy-sweet fragrant white flowers that emerge pink in bud in late winter-spring. Grows well in sun or part shade, in well drained soil. Tolerates dry once established. Very hardy to cold and frost. Great for shrub borders, and near where the fragrance can be enjoyed.
