Dart's Duke Leatherleaf Viburnum (Viburnum rhytidophyllum 'Dart's Duke') is a cultivar valued for its large, glossy, evergreen leaves and its resilience in various growing conditions. This shrub boasts broad, dark green foliage that retains its vibrant color year-round, providing an elegant presence in the landscape. In late spring, it produces showy, creamy white, fragrant clusters of flowers that stand out against the lush leaves. As summer progresses, these flowers develop into red berries, eventually turning black, which not only enhances the ornamental appeal but also serves as a food source for wildlife. Dart's Duke is versatile, tolerating different soil types and environmental conditions, including sun or partial shade. Its low maintenance requirements make it a favored choice for hedging, screening, or as an attractive specimen plant in gardens and landscapes.
