General Care
Soil
Adaptable to all soils except very wet sites.Pruning
Blooms on old wood. However, pruning after bloom will remove the potential for fruit to set. As such, its best to avoid pruning except selective removal of branches as needed.Uses
Hedges; mass plantings; mixed border.Growing Tips
Fruit production is increased by planting a compatible cultivar of arrowwood near by for cross pollination. Blue Muffin® viburnum is a reliable choice, though some people report success with other selections, as well as with native populations of V. dentatum.Features: Fall interest, Native, Attracts pollinators, Deer resistant, Clay soil, Alkaline soil, Salt tolerant
