    It should not unless you plan on getting seeds. Even then, they will produce seeds without cross pollination, but will produce more seeds with cross pollination. Your average owner is not aiming for that. Here is a collection of articles that will help you with your shrub:

    There are many reasons a plant does not flower. It may not be getting enough light, it may have too much nitrogen, it may not have enough phosphorous or it may have pests.

    Since the stems still show signs of green, it is still alive and should begin leafing out given some more time.

    Some varieties do have male and female plants. You need to find the botanical name and then you can confirm if it is one of those varieties.

    If your viburnum doesn't bloom, it could be because the species you have planted isn't appropriate for your growing zone. Too much fertilizer that is nitrogen-rich can also discourage viburnum from blooming. The age of your plant can be another factor. If the plant is too young, it might not be ready to bloom. They also need lots of sun.

    It may also be a fungus, which can be treated with a fungicide.
