Proven Winners® Spice Girl Viburnum Shrub

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location that receives full sun to partial shade, ensuring the soil is well-drained. Dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the root ball, then place the shrub in the center, backfilling with soil and watering thoroughly after.

2. Watering: Water your shrub regularly, especially during dry spells. Establishing roots is crucial, so keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy for the first growing season. Once established, it can tolerate some drought but will thrive with regular watering.

3. Pruning: Prune the shrub in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Trim any dead or damaged branches to promote healthy growth, and you can shape it to maintain a size that fits your landscape perfectly.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to encourage vibrant blooms and strong growth. Follow the instructions on the package for the appropriate amount based on your shrub’s size.
