Viburnum plants are generally considered long-lived shrubs that can provide years of beauty and enjoyment to your garden. Depending on the specific species and growing conditions, viburnums can have a lifespan of 15 to 50 years or even longer. Some viburnums, like Viburnum carlesii (Fragrant Viburnum), are known for their exceptional longevity, with some specimens reaching up to 100 years old.
Viburnum plants will typically grow back after being pruned or damaged. Viburnums are resilient shrubs that have a strong ability to recover from various setbacks. They have a well-developed root system that stores energy and nutrients, allowing them to regenerate and produce new growth.
The extent of regrowth depends on several factors, including the severity of the pruning or damage, the overall health of the plant, and the growing conditions. In most cases, viburnums can fully recover from pruning and produce new branches and foliage within the same growing season.
The most fragrant viburnum is Viburnum x burkwoodii, also known as the Burkwoodii viburnum. It has a sweet, spicy fragrance that is often described as smelling like vanilla or honey. The fragrance is strongest in the spring when the plant is in bloom.

When selecting a Viburnum for a privacy hedge, consider factors such as the desired height, growth rate, flowering and fruiting characteristics, and adaptability to your local climate and soil conditions.
Viburnums are versatile shrubs that can thrive in a variety of locations, but they generally prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Some species, such as Viburnum davidii, V. rhytidophyllum, and V. × bodnantense, can tolerate shadier positions.
Here are some specific planting guidelines for Viburnums:
Whether or not you need two Viburnum depends on the species you choose and your desired outcome. If you want to produce berries, you will need two compatible plants to cross-pollinate. However, if you are primarily interested in the flowers, you only need one plant.
