Koreanspice Viburnum 'Aurora', Korean Spice Viburnum 'Aurora', Arrowwood 'Aurora', Viburnum carlesii 'Donard Pink'
Viburnum carlesii ‘Aurora’ (Koreanspice Viburnum) is a bushy, deciduous shrub with a profusion of large flower clusters that perfume the garden with their sweet, spicy fragrance in spring. Opening from dark pink flower buds, pastel pink flowers arranged in snowball clusters gradually fade to white as they mature. Elegantly held above the foliage, they are followed by bright red berries, borne in dense upward clusters. Coppery when young, the broadly ovate leaves mature to a dusty dark green before boasting red shades in fall. A wonderful flowering shrub with a long season of interest. Perfect as a specimen or hedge.
