Grown for its lovely scent, Viburnum x burkwoodii Anne Russell is a medium-sized semi-evergreen to deciduous shrub with a neat, compact, rounded habit; it will remain evergreen in warm, sheltered gardens in the mildest areas, but will lose its leaves in winter elsewhere. The elliptical leaves are mid-green and glossy, sometimes turning red or purple in autumn. In spring, rounded heads of richly fragrant, tubular white flowers emerge from pink buds which stand through winter. Viburnum Anne Russell can be grown as a low hedge, as it responds well to clipping; it can also be trained as a standard.
