Second Pink Beauty Doublefile Viburnum Planted By Water Feature - May 2025

Yesterday, I introduced the Pink Beauty Doublefile Viburnum and showed how I planted the first (of two) flowering shrubs behind the Dawn Redwood in the backyard.  Today, I'm showing the other one.  This one is planted on the southside of the backyard, near the container water feature.  

In the original plan, we were looking at a few Tardiva Hydrangeas along the fenceline on the southside.  As part of the "lilac replacement project", we sort-of called an audible and went with some Green Giant Thujas with alternating flowering shrubs in-between.  

Earlier this Winter, I mused about adding more Thujas along the fenceline - so I wanted to keep that option open.  So, I chose to plant this a little bit 'up' from the fence.  In what would be an 'in between' spot between those (potentially) future Thujas.  

Just like the other one, I pulled back the mulch, dug a 'five dollar hole' and watered it in heavily.  Below are a couple photos showing the second Doublefile Viburnum 'Pink Beauty'.  This one has already started to bloom:

I'll be keeping an eye out for a Thuja sale at the orange big box store and will look to add a couple behind this shrub - like I've called out here.
