Plant details
This is a useful evergreen shrub for winter interest in the open garden, shrub borders or containers and is grown for its dense dark green foliage and flowers which appear over a long period from late winter to spring. The pink flower buds open to tiny, star-shaped white flowers, carried in flattened heads and these are followed by small dark blue-black fruits. It can also be grown as an informal hedge and is shade-tolerant. To propagate, take cuttings in summer. The Royal Horticultural Society have given it the Award of Garden Merit.

I am trying to identify established plants and the photos are too small to use for this. Half of the plants don't give any details when clicked on and there could be close up shots of the leaves as they are not all in flower for very long. Sorry for the whinge but I am getting frustrated as almost every plant I have tried has no details yet many others do!

Is pretty in winter and spring, but boring in the summer months. Our suddenly died for no reason after many years. We are going to replace it with another Vibernum but not a Tinus.

Lovely winter/early spring colour and recovers well if cut back hard. Rather drab in summer but a good structural plant. Gives good cover for birds, too.
