Instructions
Top Tip
Prune Viburnum after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to improve airflow and prevent disease. In early spring, feed the plant with a balanced fertiliser to promote vibrant blooms and robust foliage. For the best display, plant Viburnum in a sheltered location where it is protected from harsh winds, which can damage its delicate flowers.
How to Water
Water Viburnum regularly after planting, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged during the first year. Once established, Viburnum requires less frequent watering but benefits from deep watering during prolonged dry periods, especially in summer. Avoid watering the leaves to reduce the risk of fungal issues, and instead focus on the base of the plant. Use rainwater where possible, as it is less likely to alter soil conditions than tap water.
How to Plant
To plant Viburnum, choose a sunny or partially shaded spot with well-draining, fertile soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and slightly shallower than its depth. Position the plant in the hole so that the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. Backfill with a mix of soil and compost, firm gently to remove air pockets, and water thoroughly to settle the roots. Apply a layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping the mulch away from the plant's stem.
