Viburnum tinus 'Eve Price'

Description: Viburnum tinus 'Eve Price' is a compact, densely branched evergreen shrub prized for its exceptional winter and spring flowering. Deep pink buds open to delicate white-pink flowers from late autumn through mid-spring, providing invaluable colour and nectar during the coldest months when pollinators are scarce. The blooms are followed by small dark blue-black berries that persist into summer, offering food for garden birds and extending seasonal interest. With neat, bushy growth and attractive dark green, glossy oval foliage, this cultivar is one of the finest forms of Viburnum tinus. It tolerates a wide range of soil types, including chalk and clay soils common across South England, making it exceptionally versatile. Low-maintenance and reliable, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and is suitable for hedging, mixed borders, screening, or specimen planting. The dense habit naturally resists disease and requires only light pruning after flowering to maintain shape.
