The 'Bailey Compact' Viburnum typically grows to a height of 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters) with a similar spread. It has dense branching and dark green, glossy foliage. The leaves are oval-shaped and have serrated edges. During spring, this Viburnum produces clusters of small, fragrant, creamy-white flowers that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. The blooms are followed by red berries that gradually turn black as they ripen. These berries provide food for birds and add visual interest to the shrub. In autumn, the foliage often turns shades of red, adding to its seasonal appeal
