Viburnum tinus

Queenstown Nursery

Viburnum tinus is a reliable, tough evergreen shrub prized for its long winter bloom display and dense, dark green foliage. Perfectly suited to Queenstown conditions, this exotic staple produces tight clusters of pink-tinted buds in late autumn that open into fragrant, star-shaped white flowers throughout winter and early spring. The blooms are followed by blue-black berries, making it an invaluable plant for bringing life, texture and birds to gardens during the colder months.

This resilient shrub typically grows up to 2 - 3m in height and spread, forming a thick, naturally rounded bush that takes clipping exceptionally well for formal hedging or screening. Extremely adaptable, it thrives in full sun to shade, handles almost any soil type with reasonable drainage and withstands harsh winds, heavy frosts and coastal conditions. Once established, it is remarkably drought-tolerant, making it a low-fuss performer for challenging garden positions.

Choose Viburnum tinus for an easy-care, cold-hardy evergreen that delivers reliable winter interest, privacy screening and strong year-round structure.
