Laurustinus Viburnum

Long-lasting bouquets on a compact ornamental shrub, the Laurustinus Viburnum bush (Viburnum tinus) is a small evergreen bush that’s perfect for warm growing zones! The clusters of soft pink buds open to reveal diminutive white blossoms that completely fill out the entire plant in large bouquets of dense pink umbles and butterflies!

Compact and low maintenance, these bloom like crazy all spring with the gorgeous backdrop of handsome foliage in a two-tone dark green that remains constant all growing season. The reddish flower stems become festooned in metallic blue berries that will draw birds in hoards to snack on before winter.

Withstanding partial shade and full sun alike, these are easy-care shrubs that will rarely require pruning or fussing. Tolerant of salt spray, you can freely plant these along driveways and roadside privacy fences.

Planting and Application:

These large shrubs are evergreen and provide year-round privacy and screening, so use them around your property lines for a friendly fence that your neighbors won't mind. These large shrubs are good foundation plants along your home's Sunnyside and provide an adequate windbreak to plant in front of taller trees.

Because of the wildlife appeal, use groupings and naturalized clusters for bird-friendly shelterbelts at the back of your landscape without the worry that deer will chew them to pieces. A single specimen on the corner of your home will soften edges and anchor your landscaping. Plus, these provide a constant evergreen backdrop to garden beds and borders!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Full sun to part shade, these are incredibly easy-going, low maintenance shrubs that are self-sufficient once established. Plant in a fertile, well-drained location with moderate moisture requirements. To avoid pruning off each year's blossoms, only prune when absolutely necessary, immediately after flowering. All shrubs in hot climates love a 3-4 inch layer of arborist bark chips to help hold in moisture more consistently and insulate the root ball from heat and chill.

• Full Sun & Partial Shade
• Moderate Moisture & Fertility Needs
• Mulch Site Well
• Prune After Flowering
• Deer & Salt Resistant
