Arrowwood viburnum is an upright, rounded, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub which typically matures to 6'-10' tall with a similar spread, but may reach a height of 15' in optimum growing conditions. It has showy non-fragrant white flowers in flat-topped corymbs that appear in late spring. Flowers give way to blue-black, berry-like drupes which are quite attractive to birds and wildlife. Its dark-green glossy leaves are attractive. It has fall color that ranges from drab yellow to attractive shades of orange and red.

This is an ideal shrub for a mixed shrub border, hedge or screen.
