Large flowering shrub id
Comments (12)Here are some other pictures. Sorry I was thinking about this late last night and posted a message without many pictures b/c it was too dark outside. I just took some other pictures. I couldn't get a picture of the flowers b/c there were only a couple this year way at the top of the shrubs (but tons all over last year). We had several really late frosts--may that could have inhibited some of the flowers this year?? We had multiple shrubs with damage this spring. There is a picture of the dried flower remnant still on the shrub from last year though....See MoreWhite Flowering Shrub/small tree ID help please!
Comments (4)NO! Do not do a rejuvenation to any Viburnum!! Michael Dirr, who wrote the book on them and who has developed many of them, recommends infrequent and light pruning of Viburnums, if any at all. This is my favorite shrub. I have at least two dozen and about 8 different cultivars. I believe the one you have is a Burkwood, but it could also be Judd. Either way, it's gorgeous, pretty much pest- and maintence free, and you should definitely NOT coppice it. You do that to a Rose of Sharon or a lilac, but never to a Viburnum.
