Pileostegia Viburnoides ... an attractive evergreen shrub ...


Pileostegia Viburnoides ... an attractive evergreen shrub ...

At the end of my back garden.
I like the fluffy white flowers which appear at this time of year.

The variegated leaves near the base are Photinia Pink Marble.

More of my garden plant photos are on my recent blog. :o)

What a beautiful shrub, and I've never heard of it. Thanks Terra!

I chose this one because it is evergreen, and has lovely late-season flowers.
In my garden, it is quite slow-growing.

Hi Hchristy ...
This shrub is currently about 5ft high.
It doesn't grow all that rapidly.

Is this fast or slow growing, Terra? I ask because I love those flowers...and viburnum does really well here...
...too well, sometimes!! :)

Thanks Dotty :o)

Hi Karen .. Thank you ..
It's great to have these interesting flowers at this time of year...
I have two of these shrubs in my garden and the one which receives more sunshine has grown more quickly, but I find them generally not a fast-growing shrub. Both get shade for part of the day. Thanks for visiting :o)
