Witherod viburnum is sometimes classified as its own species (V. cassinoides). It closely resembles Viburnum nudum var. nudum but has a more northerly distribution, less glossy leaves and a larger overall size. Preference is for full to part sun and wet to average soil. White flowers appear from May to June and are followed by clusters of berries that change color over time from pink to blue to black. Great for birds! Foliage is a lovely orange-red in the fall. Grows 8-12 feet tall. Fairly well behaved but sometimes will produce runners and form a thicket. Zone 3-8. WV ecotype.
