1 Comment To "Root System of Chindo Viburnum"

My suggestion would be replace as much as you can! Or amending the soil as best you can, due to the fact that the Viburnum likes well draining loamy soil.
Viburnum does have a shallow root system. It gets it’s moisture for the first layers of the soil.
Here are some links for you with more information.
