Viburnum davidii
(David viburnum)

Viburnum Davidii is a small, evergreen, spreading shrub that boasts rich-green, leathery-feeling leaves, bright white flowers during May, and̴Ì?blue-black berries during Autumn.

The Viburnum davidii loves to produce clusters of white flowers and is generally very easy to grow. It is a little faster at growing when it is young and slows down as it matures- plus, it is very easy to trim, which is always a bonus. After it has flowered, ensure you trim back the longer shoots to enable it to quickly regenerate from old wood. We do not recommend you trim it to a formal and neatly clipped hedge, but it can still make a beautiful bit of informal hedging with plentiful of welcomed, year-round interest.

The David viburnum will do well in partial shade, as well as full shade, but will thrive best in full sun (and will likely produce more flowers if done so). It does prefer a moist, clay site, but will still be fine in other soils (except alkaline or dry). It is also suitable for windy, coastal, and exposed sites.

  • Growth height: Slow (10-20cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 1.2m-1.5m Medium
  • Soil Type: Normal
  • Exposure: Exposed, Sheltered
  • Aspect: Full shade, Sun
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes
Viburnum davidii is rather slow growing, therefore meaning it does not require much pruning. To maintain a neat, dome-like shape, you will need to prune back to strong stems/the base of the plant, after the flowering season is over. You will also need to remove any damaged or diseases shoots to retain a thriving, healthy plant. It is also recommended that you feed and mulch the plant after trimming, as to encourage healing and further healthy growth.

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
