How to Care for Spring Bouquet Viburnum
How to Plant:
- Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the container. 
- Gently remove the plant from the pot and loosen the roots if they're compacted. 
- Place the plant in the hole so the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. 
- Backfill with well-draining soil and press gently to eliminate air pockets. 
- Water thoroughly after planting, then add 1–2 inches of mulch around the base. 
Where to Plant:
- Plant in full sun to partial shade (at least 4–6 hours of sunlight daily). 
- Prefers well-drained soil but can tolerate a range of soil types. 
- Great for foundation plantings, borders, or small hedges. 
- Allow 3 to 5 feet between plants to accommodate mature spread. 
Watering:
- Water 2–3 times per week for the first few months after planting. 
- Once established, water during extended dry periods. 
- Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy—avoid overhead watering to prevent leaf issues. 
Maintenance:
- Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. 
- Prune lightly after flowering to shape or remove dead branches. 
- Watch for aphids or powdery mildew; treat promptly if needed. 
- Refresh mulch each year and remove weeds around the base for best results.
