Viburnum sieboldii, commonly known as Siebold viburnum, is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to Japan and Korea. It is known for its large, leathery leaves and clusters of small, fragrant white flowers that bloom in late spring. The plant produces red to black berries in the fall. It prefers temperate climates and can tolerate a range of soil types.
Siebold viburnum thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers bright, indirect light. It should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. The plant enjoys moderate humidity and should be protected from extreme cold and heat.
土壌
Viburnum sieboldii prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Adding organic matter can improve soil structure and fertility.
肥料
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied in the spring to support growth. Fertilize once a month during the growing season for best results.
植え替え
Repotting is generally not necessary for Viburnum sieboldii as it is typically grown outdoors. However, if grown in a container, repot every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide more space for root growth.
伝搬
Viburnum sieboldii can be propagated through softwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the cuttings moist and in indirect light until roots develop.
剪定
Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged branches and shape the plant as desired. Regular pruning helps maintain the plant's shape and encourages healthy growth.
毒性
Viburnum sieboldii is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with all plants, it is best to prevent pets and children from ingesting any part of the plant.
