Maple-Leaved Arrowwood

Mapleleaf viburnum is suitable for naturalizing in somewhat shady areas; it tends to colonize from suckers. The leaves resemble a maple leaf and turn a variety of shades in the fall. This viburnum produces small black fruit in September that may persist into winter if not eaten first by birds.

Viburnums are a versatile genus of multi-stemmed shrubs that are well suited to the home landscape due to their range of sizes and cultural adaptability. Some viburnums are noted for their fragrant flowers; most bear small fruit that may add visual interest. Many viburnums have attractive fall color. There are over 100 different varieties of viburnum at the Chicago Botanic Garden.
