watering
Viburnum luzonicum is a drought resistant plant that does best with moderate water. Water it deeply once a week during spring and summer when the soil is dry to a depth of 2-3 inches. When weather turns cooler in the fall and winter, reduce watering to once every 2 to 3 weeks. Make sure to avoid over-watering, as this can damage delicate roots.
sunlight
Luzon viburnum (Viburnum luzonicum) is a semi-evergreen shrub that grows best in partial shade. It prefers 6 to 8 hours of bright, indirect light per day. When grown in full sun, it may require more frequent watering and extra protection from the afternoon sun during the hottest times of the year.
pruning
Luzon viburnum should be pruned 1 to 2 times per year in late winter or early spring. This should be done before new growth begins in the spring, and approximately 1/3 of the longest branches should be pruned back to the desired height. This will help to keep the plant healthy and encourage new growth. Pruning luzon viburnum too much can damage the plant, so it's important to exercise caution. In addition, thinning out overcrowded branches can help to improve air circulation, light penetration, and fruiting.
