Viburnum lantana

Wayfaring Tree (Viburnum lantana)

Another Viburnum, like the Guelder Rose, which is widely distributed in the south on calcareous soils. The Wayfaring Tree has creamy white lily scented flowers in May - June which attract bees and butterflies, and are followed by red berries that turn black as they ripen.

Why "Wayfaring"? 16th century botanist John Gerard called it the "Wayfarer", as it popped up so frequently along lanes and paths across the chalky downland of southern England. It's still a good indicator of ancient byways.

Like all the native trees we sell, our Wayfaring trees are grown in the UK from UK origin seed.
