Viburnum japonicum Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: An easily grown plant, it succeeds in most soils but is ill-adapted for poor soils and for dry situations[1]. It prefers a deep rich loamy soil in sun or semi-shade[11, 200]. Requires woodland conditions but without competition from other plants. Best if given shade from the early morning sun in spring[200]. This species is hardy at Kew Botanical Gardens but it prefers a warmer climate[11]. Plants are slow-growing in Britain[219], they probably do best if given a warm position against a sunny wall[219]. Plants are self-incompatible and need to grow close to a genetically distinct plant in the same species in order to produce fruit and fertile seed[11, 200]. A foetid smelling plant[58], but the flowers are very fragrant with a jonquil-like scent[219, 245]. This species is closely related to V. odoratissimum[1].
