(Viburnum) If fragrance and evergreen foliage is important to you when looking for a Viburnum, check out this easy to grow a variety called SWEET TALKER®. Fast-growing Viburnum SWEET TALKER® can reach heights up to 12 feet tall and 5 feet wide. One of the earliest Viburnum to flower in the spring, SWEET TALKER® erupts with tubular pink flowers that are sweetly scented. The evergreen foliage is deep green with the new growth emerging burgundy red shades. The tall upright habit is perfect for creating hedges for privacy, as well as planted in mass or plant a single specimen. With the beautiful scent and great evergreen foliage, I think you won’t be able to stop at just one. Hardy in zones 7 & 8, full sun to part sun locations with well-drained soil is where this Viburnum will feel most at home.
