Viburnum lentago

Nannyberry Viburnum

An important food plant for winter wildlife. Fruits are deep-blue with a whitish coating. The fruits ripen in late fall and turn glossy when the coating wears off. The leaves, oval with a pointed tip, emerge a soft yellow-green that turn glossy dark green in summer and in fall, often turn a purplish red. The Ozarks are at the southern edge of this viburnum's growing range.
