Notes

'Sweet Talker' judd viburnum (Viburnum 'Sweet Talker') is a shrub for borders, specimen planting, hedges, and foundation plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant flowers draw butterflies, bees, and birds, and the evergreen leaves keep the shrub full all year. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. You can plant it in a row to form a tall hedge.

Pairs well with Azalea, Foam flower, and Mondo grass.
