The Prague Viburnum or Viburnum X pragense is a large shrub that adds year-round interest to a yard. Pink buds reveal fluffy, creamy-white flowers that bloom in the spring. The flowers bloom in sphere-shaped clusters. By fall, the blooms give way to berries. Dark green leaves have a leathery feel and a puckered texture. This shrub is a broadleaf perennial, so it retains its foliage throughout the winter.
This is a fast-growing plant that makes an excellent hedge or privacy screen. Plant the Prague Viburnum near a patio or outdoor space to shield the area and enjoy the fragrant flowers up close. Grow the Prague Viburnum as a perennial in zones 5 through 8.
Prague Viburnum Care
This shrub performs best in full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight, but it can tolerate partial shade. The soil should be moist and well drained. Water the Prague Viburnum when the top couple inches of soil are dry. An annual application of balanced fertilizer in the spring will promote blooms and help the plant thrive.
The Prague Viburnum has a nice natural shape but prune as needed to keep the branches even, and remove straggly growth in the late winter or early spring. Trim crossed branches on neighboring shrubs when creating a hedge.
Prague Viburnum Spacing
The Prague Viburnum is a multi-stemmed shrub that will reach 6 to 8 feet tall and 10 to 12 feet wide. This large shrub makes a beautiful hedge, so space plants 10 to 12 feet apart when creating a continuous look.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
