Bailey Compact Viburnum is a native deciduous shrub with a dense rounded habit. Its maple-like green foliage emerges red and turns a showy red burgundy in fall. Large flat-topped clusters of white flowers bloom in spring and are followed by drooping clusters of bright red cranberry-like drupes. Flowers best in consistently moist well-drained soils.
