Viburnum cinnamomifolium is a large evergreen shrub from western China, reaching about 5 m with glossy, triple-veined leaves and blue fruit. It is grown mainly as a garden shrub in mild climates and is best sited in good, moist, well-drained soil.
Viburnum cinnamomifolium, the cinnamon-leaved viburnum, is a species of flowering plant in the family Adoxaceae, native to western China. Growing to 5 m (16 ft) tall and broad, it is a substantial evergreen shrub with large, triple-veined, glossy, oval leaves up to 15 cm (6 in) long. Round clusters of tiny white flowers are produced in late spring, followed in late summer and autumn by oval dark blue fruit.
It is very similar to Viburnum davidii, differing only in the slightly thinner and less wrinkled but longer leaves, and smaller fruit (3 mm diameter, versus 4.5 mm in V. davidii).
