Pruning a Viburnum davidii

Viburnum davidii benefits from occasional pruning to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This helps to remove any dead or crossing branches, which can improve air circulation and prevent potential damage. Cutting back spent flowers during the blooming period can also promote new blooms. Use clean, sharp pruning shears to make precise cuts and reduce the risk of disease. Regular maintenance ensures the plant remains attractive and healthy throughout the year.

Watering a Viburnum davidii

Viburnum davidii requires moderate watering, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. It's best to water deeply rather than giving small amounts daily. This encourages strong root growth. Check the soil regularly to determine if watering is needed. Early morning or late afternoon is ideal for watering to minimise evaporation. During dry spells, increase watering frequency. Collected rainwater can be used as an eco-friendly option. Ensure excess water can drain away, whether the plant is in the ground or a pot. Initially, water newly planted Viburnum davidii by hand until it is well-rooted, then drip irrigation can be effective. This plant is somewhat drought-resistant once established.

Fertilising a Viburnum davidii

Fertilising Viburnum davidii is essential for promoting healthy growth and vibrant blooms. Using organic fertilisers is recommended, as they prevent root and leaf burn that can occur with synthetic options. Heijnen's Organic Starter Fertilizer and Organic Maintenance Fertilizer are excellent choices. Fertilise twice a year, in spring and summer, to ensure the plant receives the nutrients it needs. The amount of fertiliser depends on the plant's size, so adjust accordingly. Nutrients are absorbed when rain or watering helps them penetrate the soil. During dry spells, water the garden to activate the fertiliser and nourish the roots effectively.
