    I have purchased a viburnum nudum 'Winterthur' which, I believe, is a fairly new
    viburnum. I have just read that it needs a viburnum nudum 'pollinator' planted close by for it to flower. I have not been able to find one.
    Does anyone know anything about a vibunum nudum?
    I do have a Burkwoodii in the garden. Will this act as a pollinator if the nudum needs one?

    plants dont require male and female plants to flower, they need them for pollination. I dont think it would be a problem if it is planted alone.

    To get fruits, buy a few seedlings and plant them with it, if you do not find another named, vegetatively propagated cultivar that is promoted as a mate for 'Winterthur'.
