Viburnum tinus: characteristics and care<\/b><\/h2><\/h3><\/div>

Viburnum tinus<\/span><\/b>, popularly known as <\/span>laurustinus<\/b>, is a perennial shrub native to the Mediterranean basin that stands out for its dense, dark green foliage and its white or pink flowers that appear in winter, followed by metallic blue fruits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Its dense foliage and winter flowering make it a highly valued option for both hedges and isolated specimens in Mediterranean gardens.<\/span><\/p>\n

It tolerates moderate drought well once established and adapts to various soil types, provided it has good drainage.<\/span><\/p>\n

At <\/span>Ornacom <\/b>we cultivate each specimen directly, guaranteeing a balanced size and vigorous development from the first years of planting.<\/p>\n<\/div>
