Viburnum Prunifolium |

The Viburnum Prunifolium is also commonly
known as the Blackhaw Viburnum. It is a deciduous shrub or small
tree growing to 6 to 30 feet tall with a short crooked trunk and stout
spreading branches; in the northern parts of its range, it is a shrub,
becoming a small tree in the southern parts of its range.
The bark is reddish-brown, very rough on
old stems. The branchlets are red at first, then green, finally dark brown
tinged with red. The winter buds are coated with rusty tomentum. The flower
buds ovate, 1/3rd of an inch long, much larger than the axillary buds.
The leaves are simple, up to 3.5 inches
long and 2.5 inches broad, oval, ovate or orbicular, wedge-shaped or rounded
at base, serrate, acute, with serrated edges with a grooved and slightly
winged red petiole 1/2 inch long; they turn red in fall. The leaves come
out of the bud involute, shining, green, tinged with red, sometimes smooth,
or clothed with rusty tomentum; when full grown dark green and smooth above,
pale, smooth or tomentose beneath.
The flowers are creamy white, 1/3rd of
an inch diameter; the calyx is urn-shaped, five-toothed, persistent; the
corolla is five-lobed, with rounded lobes, imbricate in bud; the five stamens
alternate with the corolla lobes, the filaments slender, the anthers pale
yellow, oblong, two-celled, the cells opening longitudinally; the ovary
is inferior, one-celled, with a thick, pale green style and a flat stigma
and a single ovule.
The flowers are borne in flat-topped cymes
4 inches in diameter in mid to late spring. The fruit is a drupe 1/3rd
of an inch long, dark blue-black with glaucous bloom, hangs until winter,
becomes edible after being frosted, then eaten by birds; the stone is flat
and even, broadly oval.
Wherever it lives, black haw prefers sunny
woodland with well-drained soil and adequate water.
