Viburnum trilobum tends to like wet to average soil, and is often 
found in bogs, swamps, wet pastures, etc.

As an aside (and thanks to Dr. Gary Kling who taught me this (I know
that you're lurking on the list, Gary)), there's an easy way to tell
apart V. opulus and V. trilobum.  You should notice some glands along
the petiole where it meets the leaf base.  On V. opulus the surface of
these glands are concave, whereas on V. trilobum they are convex.

I oftentimes see plants mislabeled in nurseries as V. trilobum when
they are actually V. opulus.
