Shrub Viburnum sargentii 'Susquehanna' [Susquehanna Sargent Viburnum] 'Susquehanna' is a very large, vigorous shrub (or possibly large tree) noted for its prolific (but stinky) lace-doily-like flowers and handsome, persistent red fruit display. Its heavy, coarse textured branches are covered with an interesting corky bark. Prefers cooler climates and is not recommended for landscapes south of USDA zone 7. Viburnum sargentii is similar to Viburnum opulus (European Cranberrybush Viburnum).
Shrub Viburnum setigerum [Tea Viburnum] The Tea Viburnum is most noted for its truly outstanding fruit display. In autumn, branches are heavily laden with large clusters of striking bright red oval berries. For optimal fruit production, plant in groups. Can be quite open and leggy; it is advisable to plant other, shorter, plants in front of the Tea Viburnum. Gained its common name from the fact that the leaves were once used to make tea.
Shrub Viburnum sieboldii [Siebold Viburnum] Transplants easily. Crushed leaves have a green pepper smell. Drought resistance is not good, resulting in leaf scorch.
