Bodnant viburnum is a deciduous broadleaf shrub that blooms on previous season's growth with fragrant pink flowers appearing in winter to early spring. It reaches 8-10 ft tall with an upright, multi-stemmed habit. Over 11 diseases and 5 pests are documented.
This hybrid viburnum prefers full sun to part shade with well-drained soil. It is notable for old-wood flowering, so timing of pruning after bloom is critical. Hardy to zones 6-8, it provides exceptional winter fragrance and color.
