Planting Advice for Viburnum tinus Eve Price Shrubs

Our pot grown evergreen Viburnum 'Eve Price' can be planted at any time of the year. Start by removing weeds and grass within a metre of your desired planting hole, then dig a square hole as deep as the root mass and approximately 2x as wide. To help the bush establish more effectively, sprinkle root grow in the hole.

Gently loosen the roots and place into the planting hole. Mix 50% of your original soil with 50% high quality compost, then fill in the hole and firm around gently. Make sure not to bank the soil up around the collar of the bush.

Aftercare Advice for Viburnum tinus Eve Price Shrubs

If you’re planting evergreen Viburnum in spring, summer or dry weather, water well and regularly for the first few months. Increase watering if there are extended periods of hot or dry weather. If you’re planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. We stock a range of irrigation kits to assist watering.

Once planted, it is important to keep the area free of competing weeds for the first couple of growing seasons.

Pruning Advice for Viburnum tinus Eve Price Shrubs

Simply prune your Viburnum after flowering but avoid pruning any new shoot growth if your area is prone to frost. Mature Viburnum can be thinned out to improve their shape. Cut back any crossing, damaged or crowded branches.
