Re: Viburnum acerifolium

Hi,

Viburnum acerifolium or Mapleleaf Viburnum gwors wild in rich woods
around here.  It must have shade, although I am not sure how much.  I
have only seen it listed in one specialty nursery catalog and I can't
find it now.  I have tried to grow is from seed but it's a three year
process at best.  The radical germinates under cold conditions in the
first or second year and then the top starts one year later!  Ugggh.

Always has a pretty pink fall color and blue/black berries.

Be careful when introducing non-native plants unless there is a history
of it and you know it will not be invasive.  You never know what the
next Kudzu (the Japanese? vine taking over the US Southeast) will be.

Hello! I´m Peter Linder from southern Sweden.
On a trip to Massachusetts last autumn I saw the beautiful fallcolors of
Viburnum acerifolium.  Do anybody grow this as a garden plant?  If so,
what
merits and problems does it posses? Maybee it´s hardy in Sweden.
