Viburnum 'Le Bois Marquis'
Received in early May 2023, the plant has not been growing since it was placed in the pot, even though its growth should be rapid according to the information on the website. Naturally disappointed.

Description
The Viburnum 'Le Bois Marquis' is a recent variety of viburnum, found in France, at the Le Bois Marquis arboretum, and awarded at Courson in 2007 for its interesting ornamental qualities throughout the year. This beautiful bush, semi-evergreen in cold climates, develops visible red wood in winter and bears young bronze leaves in spring, which take on a superb coppery red colour in autumn and winter. Its spring flowers, in white-pink clusters, are followed by red berries that turn black when ripe. This dense variety well-branched from the base is an excellent bush that also adapts very well to cultivation in large pots.
The Viburnum 'Le Bois Marquis' is a hybrid viburnum belonging to the caprifoliaceae family. It is a bush with an upright and rounded habit, growing densely and highly branched from the base. It has a fast growth rate and will reach about 2.50m (8ft) in height and 2m (7ft) in width at maturity. Its foliage is evergreen, semi-evergreen below -15°C, changing colour throughout the seasons. Its oval and lanceolate leaves are glossy, tinted bronze in spring, and red-copper to purple in autumn. The flowering takes place in late spring, in the form of small clusters of white flowers tinged with red, which will produce black fruits when ripe, highly appreciated by birds in winter. This Virburnum is easy to maintain. Pruning should be avoided.
This easy-to-grow bush is content with ordinary garden soil if not too dry. It will fit well in a natural hedge, which it will help structure, along with other viburnums cultivated for their fragrance (Viburnum x bodnantense or V. fragrans) or for their autumn foliage (Viburnum sargentii Onondaga or V. tomentosum). In flower beds, it can be associated with tulips. Its dense and well-maintained habit and presence throughout the year, allow it to contribute to the decoration of the terrace, in a large pot with grasses, dwarf conifers, or ground cover plants.

Planting and care
The Viburnum 'Le Bois Marquis' can be planted on its own for its elegant habit and the beauty of its foliage, persistant down to -15°C (5°F) or as a natural hedge. This viburnum can be planted in full sun, partial shade, or even full shade. It does not have any particular soil requirement (acidic, neutral, or alkaline) and it is hardy. However, it prefers soil that remains fairly moist, even if it is rich in clay and heavy, and will need watering during the first summers to help it establish. Avoid pruning it to preserve its natural spherical habit.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
