Opening Day Viburnum is a compact upright multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with deeply pleated toothed dark green leaves that turn burgundy in fall. Heavy blooms of large baseball-sized clusters of flowers open tinted green and maturing to pure white bloom in spring and give way to bright red berries that mature to black in fall. Flowers best with full sun and moist, lightly acidic well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established. Foliage is evergreen in the South but still earns fall color.
