watering
Water Viburnum farreri 'Nanum' thoroughly when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry. During the summer months, it may need to be watered weekly; during cooler months, water every 2 weeks. Water in the morning to increase the plants resistance to disease and to reduce water loss from leaf evaporation. During times of extreme heat, water every 5-7 days. Avoid wetting the foliage when watering, as this can cause mildew and disease issues.
sunlight
Viburnum farreri 'Nanum' (also known as Fragrant Snowball) is a type of viburnum shrub that thrives best in full sunlight. It should receive at least 6 hours per day of direct sun light for optimal growth and flowering. Morning sun tends to be best for this type of plant because it helps to dry the foliage before nightfall, preventing fungal disease and pest infestations. It may tolerate a few hours of shade, but morning sun is ideal.
pruning
Viburnum farreri 'Nanum' should be pruned twice a year for best growth and shape. Prune in spring, when the danger of hard frost has passed, and again in late summer. When pruning in the spring, remove any dead wood or twiggy growth and thin the plant slightly to allow air to move around the shrub and light to penetrate. Then prune off any crossing branches or those that are growing in an undesirable direction. In the late summer, cut back the tips of the branches to keep the shrub neat and encourage bushier growth.
