Description
Viburnum odoratissimum Dense Fence is a premium evergreen hedge selection known for its compact growth, finer foliage and extremely dense branching, outperforming common Viburnum odoratissimum for tight screening. In Melbourne gardens it typically reaches 3-3.5 metres tall and around 2 metres wide, creating a uniform, full hedge ideal for narrow boundaries and privacy screening. It performs reliably in Melbourne's conditions, tolerating heat, moderate frost, coastal exposure and varied soil types when well drained. With glossy green leaves, strong upright growth and fast establishment, Dense Fence is suited to both residential and commercial landscapes needing a polished, consistent hedge.
