Chicago Lustre Arrowwood Viburnum - Green in Fall - November 2024
In Fall 2021, I planted two small (2 gallon nursery container) Chicago Lustre Arrowwood Viburnum shrubs in a pair of locations that were part of our overall, master garden plan. The plan calls for these Arrowwood Viburnum in a number of locations, but I've only planted two. (Note for next year, I suppose...) That means they've had three full growing seasons (2022, 2023 and now 2024) to grow up and out. These are at the very back of the border, so while I'd like to say that I've cared for them...that's just not true: these have mostly been neglected. After the first few Winters - where rabbits were eating these, I've watered them (on occasion) and mostly forgot about them. Despite that, they've grown up and out. In Fall 2021, they were about 12" tall from the ground/mulch. Today, they're both over the top of the lower fence (4' tall fence). Below is a look at the pair of Arrowwood Viburnum - which....are still....surprisingly...green i
