Description
The Viburnum tinus 'Spirit' is a very early variety of laurel, floweing from the end of November. The inflorescences offer a beautiful range of colours, from bright pink to pure white, a bit of colour in the heart of winter.
Viburnum tinus is a local species native to the entire Mediterranean region, it belongs to the caprifoliaceae family. The 'Spirit' variety from this species forms a small, compact bush, with a round habit, 2 to 2.50m (6.6ft) in size with long-lasting flowering which starts in November, its coloured flower buds open into perfect white umbels in March; a particularly appreciated touch of colour in this season. The flowers will give way to small black berries that attract birds.
The evergreen foliage of this bush will clothe hedges where have planted it. Hardy and perfectly adapted to many growing conditions, you can also keep it in a container or use it as a standalone plant in a small garden. At the base, consider planting some spring bulbs that will take over from the winter flowering while waiting for the more spring-like bushes to wake up.

Planting and care
Plant Viburnum tinus 'Spirit' in isolation or as a natural hedge preferably in full sun or light shade. It is not very demanding in terms of soil type and tolerates chalk. Just make sure it has good drainage, as stagnant and waterlogged soils are its only enemies. Prune it after flowering, it tolerates severe pruning well, but you can maintain its natural, elegant habit,with light pruning. In particularly harsh climates, it may be useful to mulch it during extreme cold spells.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
