I'm afraid I might have some bad news for you, Isabelle. If this IS your
problem, you're not alone. All of my High Bush Cranberry Viburnums were
stripped bare this Spring and didn't recover (sort of) until a few weeks
ago. I don't expect them to make it through another year, which is tragic
since I have a huge hedge of them across the front of my property (6.5
acres) that affords privacy and feeds the wild turkeys in the Winter.
