Name That Plant!

Need Help Identifying this tree

9 years ago

We are clearing out the back part of our yard and found this tree. We don't know what kind it is. Once they are ripe they are a dark purple. I have tried searching for what it is and if it is safe for my 2 small boys who like to play around that tree.

Viburnum. Could be nannyberry, Viburnum lentago. If so the fruits are edible but not especially palatable.

I agree, definitely a viburnum.
