Common name: Viburnum

Description: Viburnum bodnantense 'Lisarose' is a beautiful winter-flowering viburnum producing clusters of richly fragrant, deep rose-pink flowers on bare stems from late autumn to early spring.

This upright deciduous shrub is an essential plant for winter gardens, providing fragrance and colour through the coldest and darkest months of the year.
