Notes
Viburnum (Viburnum bodnantense) is a shrub for hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. It grows 96 to 120 inches tall and 48 to 72 inches wide, so give it room. Pink flowers open in early to mid spring and smell sweet. The leaves also add fall color.
Pairs well with Cotoneaster, Peony, and Dawn redwood.
