RE: Viburnum lantana 'Variegatum'

Somehow I missed the genesis of this discussion, but I am growing this
one - or perhaps I should say attempting to grow.  I've had it for over
three years now and it's probably not grown more than 5 or 6 inches in
that time.  I have no idea what I am doing or not doing - the plant
looks perfectly healthy, no evidence of stress, disease or pests.  I
moved it after the first full summer when it exhibited no growth at all.
It's now in a bed containing several other viburnams and hydrangeas -
all of which are thriving. My neighbor also is attempting this one and
her experience echoes mine. It just does not grow fast - at least in
this area.  Not typical at all of my experience with the other vibes.
The foliage is lovely and I can see that it will be a spectacular shrub
if ever it reaches its potential.

Donna,
I don't grow this vibe. We do have the species at CES, but it's young. I
googled and came up with HxS variously of 10 x 10 to 12-15 x 12-15. It's
listed as zone 4 hardy. I don't have any personal experience to share.
