Blackhaw Viburnum is so beautiful in flower, and because it is largely disease-resistant, I don't think it's a stretch to consider it as a substitute for White Flowering Dogwood. 
 
     The spring blooms arrive in large, white flower clusters followed by edible blue-black fruits that make a tasty jam.  Blackhaw's dark green foliage turns reddish-purple in the fall. It tolerates drought and does well in urban conditions.
 
     Blackhaw is larval host to the Tufted Apple-bud Moth and other species, and it attracts native bees, bumble bees, butterflies, and tons of other pollinators.
 
     Like all Viburnums, two or more plants are needed for fruit.
