Size
This Vibernum will grow to approx 3m by 2m in 10 years but is happy to be pruned to shape, and will thrive as a smaller plant.
The pretty pink flowers on bare stems in the depth of winter provide welcome colour and interest in the garden. It even flowers in the snow!
In summer the green leaved plant provides a good backdrop to summer plants. It will sometimes produce berries – these are poisonous.
