Bring year-round interest to any balcony or patio with this stunning Viburnum tinus patio tree.
Features shiny evergreen leaves, clusters of white flowers from winter to spring, and decorative blue-black berries.
A favourite for wildlife, its berries attract songbirds like robins and finches, while its flowers are loved by bees and butterflies.
Recognised by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators'.
This small, upright tree is easy to grow and requires only a light annual prune to maintain its neat, compact shape.

Eventual Spread: Spreads approximately 0.5-1m when maintained with pruning.
Hardiness: H4 - Hardy throughout most of the UK (down to -10°C).
Soil Type: Your patio laurustinus tree will appreciate being planted in moist, well-drained compost (we'd suggest John Innes No. 3 being your first port of call).

Planting Time: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December
Watering: Your patio laurustinus tree will require more watering than a laurustinus grown in the ground, especially during hot, dry spells.
Feeding: In early spring, apply a balanced fertiliser.
Pruning: Give your patio laurustinus tree a light trim in April to keep its shape nice and compact.
Pests & Diseases: Can have issues with aphids and whiteflies. Check the leaves regularly for any possible infestation. If you see aphids or whitefly, pick the bugs off by hand and spray the affected area with some soapy water. You can also plant a companion plant nearby such as marigolds. These will attract predatory insects such as ladybirds that will eat the bugs.
