Winter Fall Foliage: Arrow Wood

Fall foliage of the arrow wood viburnum (Viburnum dentatum) can still be seen after the winter solstice.

This grouping of arrow wood started out as a few volunteer saplings, first noted in 2009. This spot was initially designated for Virginia willow (Itea virginica), which remains and continues to spread.
