Description

A cross between Viburnum rhytidophylloides and Viburnum lantana ‘Mohican’ hybridized by the US National Arboretum, the Allegheny Viburnum is an easy-to-grow and long-lived stately garden classic featuring abundant and showy domed clusters of creamy white flowers that stand out splendidly against the backdrop of large, leathery and heavily wrinkled dark green leaves that are nearly evergreen. Following the flowers are numerous clusters of bright red berries in summer through fall that the birds, squirrels and other wildlife will enjoy. Fruit set will be greater if cross-pollinated with other cultivars. Good pollinators for Alleghany are Prague, ‘Willowwood’, ‘Conoy’, ‘Chesapeake’ or ‘Eskimo’.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 8 to 10 feet tall and equally as wide at maturity, the Alleghany Viburnum can be grown as a large shrub or lower branches can be removed to form a very attractive small tree. Either way, it is an eye-catching specimen or natural hedge in landscape and flowering shrub borders. Also useful to frame corners of homes or other buildings or as espalier (trained to grow flat against a wall) in home foundation plantings. A fine addition to white theme gardens, bird gardens, wildlife gardens, Viburnum gardens, and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 8 feet apart for solid hedge; 16 feet or more apart for space between plants.

Growing Preferences

Viburnum is very easy to grow in most any moist but well drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. It prefers a loamy soil rich in organic matter. As with so many other ornamental plants it does not like constantly soggy or wet conditions. Quite drought tolerant when established and we’ve seen no serious pest or disease problems. Deer haven’t touched it in our gardens. For best flowering, at least 5 hours of direct sunlight per day is suggested. Responds very well to pruning for shaping, size control and tree forming. Prune as needed immediately after flowering.
