Re: viburnum bulletin

Rich,

    Blackhaw is "the only native viburnum here in NE"?  What about V.
acerifolium, dentatum, trilobum, lantanoides, cassinoides, lentago, etc?

Hey Pam, Congrats on the Blackhaw.  It's the only native viburnum here in
NE also.  The rabbits just about ate mine level with the ground, but it's
only a couple of years old.  Guess I shuld have fenced it.

My blackhaw viburnum (my favorite) for eight years has been the only
viburnum in the yard that hasn't bloomed.  The rest all have w/in 2 years
of
being planted.  Well guess what - I just went out there and it is covered
in
flower cluster buds.  I just can't tell you how gratifying that is after
waiting eight long years!   I mean it's 12 feet tall, not like it isn't
mature or anything.  I'm totally delighted and thrilled.  I knew anyone
else
would think I was nuts but y'all would understand!  And my leatherleaf
mahonia has berries on it for the first time in 7 years.  Normally we get
a
hard freeze when it's blooming which kills off the buds.  Not this year.
I
am walkin' on sunshine man!  WOW.
