Viburnum Tinus ‘Anvi’ Spirit™ is a dense, rounded evergreen shrub with glossy forest-green foliage and attractive crimson-toned new stems. Large clusters of pink buds open into lightly fragrant creamy-white flowers, creating an impressive display from winter through late spring. Deep purplish-blue berries follow the flowers, extending its ornamental appeal into the following season.
Ideal for hedging, screening, mixed garden beds or feature planting, Spirit Laurustinus provides reliable year-round structure and excellent seasonal colour. Its dense growth responds well to pruning and performs in full sun or partial shade, making it a practical choice for customers seeking an attractive, hardy and relatively low-maintenance privacy plant.
