yet another question about viburnum

20 years ago

Hello, all.

I'm sure this question has been tackled before, but how far apart do two cross-pollinators have to be for pollination to occur?? The lady at the nursury told me that they basically have to be right next to eachother, which surprised me... I thought I'd ask the real experts... So exactly how far apart should my cross-pollinators be? Thanks.

They don't have to be that close together. Within 100 feet should do it. Anywhere in a normal sized yard that looks good would be the way I would go.

They're pollinated by bees, so I'm not real sure why she said they have to be right beside each other. Which viburnums do you have?
