Viburnum Eve Price – Evergreen Hardy Flowering Shrub

Viburnum tinus 'Eve Price' is a compact and densely branched evergreen shrub, widely regarded as one of the finest forms of Viburnum tinus. Prized for its prolific winter and spring flowering, it produces clusters of deep pink buds that open to delicate white-pink flowers from late autumn through to mid-spring, providing valuable colour and nectar during the coldest months of the year. Following the flowers, small dark blue-black berries develop, adding further seasonal interest and a food source for garden birds.

With its neat, bushy habit and attractive dark green glossy foliage, Viburnum 'Eve Price' is an excellent choice for hedging, mixed borders, screening, or as a standalone specimen in containers. It is tolerant of a wide range of soil types and conditions, making it a versatile and low-maintenance addition to any garden.

This plant is supplied in a 3L pot (19cm root-ball), garden ready for immediate planting.
