Description
"Anvi" Laurustine (Viburnum tinus) is like the upgraded version of an already smashing hit. Not only does it proudly flaunt those pink and white blooms from Kambarang (late spring) to Bunuru (late summer), but this large shrub also puts on a more compact and prolific flowering show than its traditional cousin. And, just like a sun-loving Perth local, Anvi stands tall and radiant even under the full blaze.
If you're keen on giving Anvi a home, this trooper loves a good pot but will genuinely thank you when planted in the ground with some soil conditioner. After its bloom bonanza, Anvi doesn't mind a trim to keep looking its best. And if you're looking to give it a bit of a treat, a touch of fertiliser in Djilba (early spring) will surely 'amp' up its performance for the next season.
