Viburnum tinus pruning
Does Viburnum Tinus flower on new shoots, two year old or older?
I am a bit gung-ho when it comes to pruning and my viburnum is just now flowering on outside stems. I have had to prune quite hard in the past as it was getting out of hand and in doing so lost that year's flowers. I guess that if I dead-head, I will lose the black berries. Most web guides are too vague. I can prune hydrangea and rose without losing flowers and fuchsias will flower whatever you do, but the viburnum has got me beat. -- Jim S |
