Description
Viburnum Spice Island is a stunning compact shrub that delivers a refreshing burst of color and fragrance each spring. Its magnificent clusters of pink buds open to reveal beautiful white, star-like blooms that fill the landscape with a satisfying, spicy-sweet scent. The polished green foliage remains vibrant throughout the growing season before transforming into a brilliant mix of orange and red in fall. With its tidy, mounded form and outstanding seasonal interest, this viburnum is one of the finest choices for foundation plantings, mixed borders, and walkways where its fragrant blooms can be fully appreciated.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Prefers full sun to part shade
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots and support healthy growth; once established, requires minimal supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods
  • Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
  • Pruning: Prune lightly after flowering if shaping is needed

With its fragrant spring flowers, bold fall color, and refined structure, Viburnum Spice Island is a refreshing and elegant addition to the landscape, offering year-round interest and seasonal brilliance.
