Viburnum odoratissimum, commonly called sweet viburnum, is an evergreen shrub or small tree that grows to as much as 20′ tall. It is native from the Himalayas to Japan. Common name is in obvious reference to its fragrant funnel-shaped white flowers which bloom in conical terminal panicles (to 3-6″ long) in late spring to early summer. Flowers give way to single-seeded red fruits (drupes) which mature to black. Fruits are attractive to birds. Thick, leathery, elliptic-ovate olive green leaves (to 3-8″ long) are evergreen. Var. awabuki is native to Taiwan and Japan. It grows to a slightly more compact 12′ tall on stems clad with large, ovate-lanceolate leaves with extremely glossy upper surfaces (leaves of V. odoratissimum are generally dull green with little gloss).
