Viburnum tinus – (Laurustinus)
Commonly known as Laurustinus, this plant has curb appeal to your home with this dense, evergreen shrub.

Abundant clusters of tiny, pale pink buds open to fragrant, white flowers in winter and spring followed by bright metallic blue berries. Berries are harmful if eaten. (because its flower resembles that of a fox’s tail) this plant is a tall green fine foliaged grass.
