Characteristics

Its size and shape make it suitable for various garden settings, including smaller spaces and containers. The shrub features multiple seasons of interest, ensuring a vibrant and dynamic landscape throughout the year.
During spring, Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum produces clusters of fragrant, pinkish-white blossoms that fill the air with a delightful scent.

As winter sets in, the bare branches of Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum take on an elegant architectural form. The shrub's natural shape, combined with its interesting branching pattern, adds visual appeal even in the absence of foliage.
Planting Tips
When selecting the ideal location for your Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum, choose an area with well-draining soil and full to partial sunlight exposure. This shrub thrives in USDA hardiness zones 4-8, making it adaptable to different climates across the United States.
Prepare the planting hole by digging a space that is twice as wide and slightly deeper than the root ball of the shrub. Loosen the soil in the surrounding area to promote healthy root growth and proper establishment. Incorporate organic matter, such as compost, into the soil to enhance its fertility and drainage.
Place the Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with or slightly above the ground surface. Backfill the hole with soil, gently firming it around the roots to eliminate air pockets.
Water the newly planted shrub thoroughly, and apply a layer of mulch around the base to conserve moisture, suppress weed growth, and insulate the roots against temperature fluctuations.
Maintenance
To keep your Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum healthy and thriving, regular maintenance is essential. Here are some key tasks to consider:
Watering:
Once established, Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum is relatively drought-tolerant. However, it is important to provide adequate water during prolonged dry spells, especially in the first year after planting. Water deeply at the base rather than sprinkling the leaves to promote deep root growth.
Pruning:
Prune your Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum during the late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain a clean and open structure. Additionally, light pruning can be done after the shrub has finished blooming to shape and manage its size.
Fertilizing:
Spice Baby™ Koreanspice Viburnum benefits from a balanced slow-release fertilizer application in spring. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the appropriate dosage and method of application. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to excessive foliage growth with reduced blooming.
