Viburnum Korean Spice

Amazing fragrant flowers, this customer favorite and best seller for good reason, the lovely Korean Spice Viburnum (Viburnum carlesii), also known as Korean Spice, is a wonderfully fragrant, deciduous shrub. If you had to pick only one shrub to plant in your yard, Korean Spice Viburnum would be that shrub. You'll fall for the ornamental flowers and heavenly scent.

Korean Spice Viburnum is a charming shrub in every way. In spring, petite pink buds unfurl their delicate petals to reveal pink-tinted blossoms that slowly transition to white. Waxy, red flower buds open to white blooms clusters around the same time as your spring-flowering bulbs put on their show.

These 3-inch floral snowballs are sure to turn your head every time you step outside when they are in bloom. Their spicy scent will draw you closer and be an irresistible call to hummingbirds and butterflies so early in the season. Korean Spice is one of the most popular, best-selling plants because of its incredible spicy flowers that exude such an intoxicating fragrance. To date, nobody has been able to successfully recreate that sweet and spicy scent in a candle or spray.

Korean Spice's 4-inch, dark green leaves provide a lush, verdant appearance in your yard. They add a dash of spicy red and purple fall color that lasts and lasts until late in the season. This fine-textured shrub looks great all growing season long.

This Viburnum also has an upright, open-branching nature, so it looks great in winter, too. Add another cultivar, Korean Spice as a cross-pollination partner. Your local songbirds will appreciate having the red berries that turn nearly black in autumn. You'll like adding a bit of extra interest to this exceptional, ornamental shrub.
