Viburnum plicatum Pragense 4 Litre Pot

Viburnum plicatum 'Pragense' is a versatile, semi-evergreen shrub with a dense, upright growth habit. Known for its attractive foliage, abundant blooms, and year-round interest, it is an excellent choice for UK gardens, particularly for mixed borders and hedging. It typically grows to around 2.5-3 metres (8-10 feet) in height and spread.

Key Features:

• Flowers: In late spring to early summer (May to June), 'Pragense' produces creamy-white flower clusters (corymbs) that sit elegantly on the branches. These blooms attract pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, enhancing the biodiversity of the garden.
• Foliage: The dark green, leathery leaves are semi-evergreen, remaining on the plant for most of the year. In autumn, the leaves may take on a bronze tint, adding seasonal interest.
• Berries: Following the flowers, small red berries appear, which ripen to black. These berries are attractive to birds, providing food for wildlife in the garden.
• Growth Habit: With its upright and rounded form, 'Pragense' has a dense structure, making it ideal for hedging or screening.

Growing Conditions:

• Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade, with full sun encouraging the best flowering.
• Soil: Thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is adaptable to a variety of soil types, including loam, clay, and sandy soils. It prefers slightly acidic to neutral pH levels.
• Watering: Regular watering is needed during the establishment period, especially in dry spells. Once mature, it is relatively drought-tolerant.
• Hardiness: Fully hardy in the UK, this viburnum can withstand cold winters, making it suitable for a wide range of locations.

Landscape Uses:

'Pragense' is ideal for use as a hedging plant, providing year-round privacy with its dense, semi-evergreen foliage. It is also suitable for mixed borders or as a specimen plant. Its elegant flowers, berries, and evergreen foliage make it a standout feature in the garden across multiple seasons.
