Viburnum – American Wentworth (Viburnum trilobum 'Wentworth') is a native standout prized for its ornamental beauty and wildlife value. In late spring, this hardy shrub produces clusters of striking white lacecap flowers, followed by a prolific display of bright scarlet berries that last from late summer through winter.
