Judd viburnum is an easy-to-grow, medium-sized shrub. Its leathery blue-green leaves make a nice backdrop for the clusters of pink flower buds that appear in May. They open into small, fragrant white flowers.

The flowers turn into black fruit in fall, while the leaves turn purple. It is smaller than many other viburnums and has bluer leaves.

Judd viburnum has grown at the Cottonwood Creek Garden for several years. It is a nice, smaller-sized viburnum for tighter spaces. It has a long season of interest with the buds, flowers and berries, plus the leaf fall color.

Prune to shape when young.
