Notes

'Mohican' common wayfaring tree (Viburnum lantana 'Mohican') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Deer tend to pass it by. It grows into a dense shrub about 7 to 8 feet tall. White flowers draw butterflies, bees, and birds, and the plant tolerates drought.

Pairs well with Blue Arrow Rocky mountain juniper, Nepeta, and Wormwood.
