Viburnum plicatum 'Lanarth'
Viburnum plicatum ‘Lanarth’

One of the really graceful Viburnums, is Viburnum plicatum Lanarth. A naturally graceful tiered growth habit, textured foliage and masses of white flowers in spring. This species is from China and nearby areas, widely grown in Japan as well as Taiwan.

A very easy care shrub that will flower well in part shade. Viburnum plicatum Lanarth is at home near a water feature, as a feature plant in a lawn, or at the front of the garden border where it is allowed to flow over the edge of a path or lawn.

In autumn this is a Viburnum variety puts on a show of purple foliage. The flowers which appear in spring may give way to red berries that age to a deep purple.

The flowers form on the horizontal branches, so this gives is a clue as to how to prune. Remove the unneeded verticals.

Care

Best grown in a humus rich soil that is well drained. Once established this is a relatively drought tolerant. We do suggest watering as required over the first few summers.

Mulch around the plant to maintain a cool moist root run.

Fertilise in late winter to early spring by top dressing with well rotted compost and some aged cow manure, a general purpose slow release fertiliser can also be used.

Selective pruning of branches after flowering can help to maintain a good shape.
