Comments: The fragrant flowers of Burkwood Viburnum are

inch leaves persist into winter and give the plant a        
medium texture.                                             

Cultivars:                                                  
   'Chenaultii' - Slightly larger than X burkwoodi but      
     otherwise similar.                                     
   'Conoy' - The glossy green leaves serve as a background  
     for the white flowers.  The fruits are at first red    
     and then turn black.

     weeks prior to opening.
