You want a broad privacy screen.
You like flowers followed by berries.
You need a deer-resistant shrub.
Skip This If
You need a narrow hedge.
You want a tidy dwarf shrub.
Your soil stays wet.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
It gives a strong, natural shrub border look with spring flowers, dark foliage, and fruit.
Growth Rate
B+
It fills in at a useful pace without needing constant correction.
Maintenance
B
It is generally straightforward, but its size means occasional pruning is part of the job.
Deer Resistance
C
This isn't deer-resistant; deer may browse it, especially tender new growth, so protect it where deer pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
D
This is not the shrub for narrow beds, small corners, or tight walkways.
Screening Value
A
Its dense branching and large frame make it one of the better deciduous shrubs for privacy.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Alleghany Viburnum for property lines and larger mixed borders, not tight front beds. Give it space early so you are not fighting its natural size later.

Customers Usually Ask
Will it stay green in winter?
Partly, depending on winter exposure; expect more leaf drop in colder, windier spots.
Will it get berries?
Fruit is more reliable when another compatible viburnum is planted nearby.
Can I shear it like a hedge?
Light shaping is fine, but it looks better as a natural screen than a tight clipped wall.

Shrubs Grown to Perform in New England
At Pro Growers of New England, our shrubs are grown and maintained locally to perform in true New England conditions. From flowering varieties to evergreen foundation plants, each shrub is properly spaced, pruned, and cared for to develop strong root systems and balanced structure before it ever reaches your landscape.
Unlike large online sellers that ship plants long distances, we invite you to visit our nursery, walk the rows, and inspect the exact shrubs available. You can see the size, health, and fullness in person — ensuring there are no surprises upon delivery.
We use your zone to show which plants are hardy where you live.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!

They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
