These three viburnums lived up to their reputation. Arrived in excellent condition, they are now well-established and healthy, having survived the heatwave in full sun with just an evening watering.

Description

Viburnum tinus, is an evergreen bush. Adaptable, it tolerates any type of soil and exposure.

 

Enjoying well-drained soils and responding well to pruning, it is well-suited for cultivation in large pots. It flowers in umbels of white/pink colour, about 10cm (3.9 inches) long which last all winter and a good part of spring and dress up the garden, which greatly needs it during this season. It produces small black fruits.

It is also suitable for informal hedges, where its round and dense habit works wonders, and for isolated plantings, where it can be trained as a standard.
