How To Fertilize
Burkwood Viburnum will need to be feed three to four times a year, starting in the month of April and ending in mid July. We recommend using our Elements Starter Plant Food in granular form for that boost your plant will need.

Heavy pruning of the Burkwood Viburnum should take place in the late winter or early spring. While light pruning can happen at any time. When heavy pruning is needed, you will need to cut one-third of the oldest stems on the shrub. This will help improve the air circulation inside of the shrubs canopy.

Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
