Description
Viburnum – Bailey Compact (Viburnum trilobum 'Bailey Compact') is a hardy, ornamental shrub prized for its refined size and multi-season beauty. This compact variety of Highbush Cranberry produces flat-topped clusters of white lacecap flowers in late spring, followed by a vibrant display of scarlet-red berries from late summer through winter. These berries not only enhance the visual appeal but also attract birds to the garden, adding ecological value.
With its dense, upright spreading form and dark green lobed leaves that turn rich orange in fall, this multi-stemmed deciduous shrub is a striking addition to any landscape. Golden stems and smooth gray bark offer year-round interest. Ideal for natural low hedges, mixed borders, or foundation plantings, Bailey Compact Viburnum thrives in full sun to part shade and tolerates a wide range of soils in Zones 2–8. Low-maintenance and deer-resistant, it's an excellent choice for gardeners seeking compact beauty with big seasonal impact.
