Viburnum Tinus Evergreen Privacy Hedge Plants (Set of 3 or 6)

Bring year-round structure and seasonal interest to your garden with this set of three Viburnum Tinus plants. Widely regarded as one of the most reliable evergreen hedging shrubs, Viburnum Tinus (commonly known as Laurustinus) produces clusters of pink-budded flowers that open to white from late autumn through to spring, when few other plants are in bloom. These are followed by small, metallic dark blue-black berries that provide food for garden birds well into summer.

With dense, bushy growth and attractive glossy foliage, Viburnum Tinus is an excellent choice for creating privacy screens, informal hedging, or as a standalone specimen in borders and larger containers. It is a robust, low-maintenance shrub that thrives in a range of conditions and is well suited to the UK climate.
