Bring spring fragrance right to your doorstep with Viburnum carlesii 'Spice Cowboy™'. This rounded, deciduous shrub is prized for its exceptionally large clusters of sweetly scented flowers that open in spring, then give way to handsome green foliage that finishes the season with deep red tones in fall.

Plant it where you will pass often - near a walkway, patio, or an open window - so you can enjoy the perfume on mild days. You will get the best flower display and the strongest fall color with full sun to part shade (at least several hours of direct light). In shadier spots it can still grow well, but flowering and fall color may be reduced.

At maturity, expect a sturdy, mounded plant about 6-10 ft tall. Give it room to develop its natural shape and airflow, and provide consistent moisture while it establishes. Once settled, it prefers evenly moist, well-drained soil and does not like standing water.

This viburnum is an easy, long-lived landscape choice for borders, foundation plantings, hedges, and as a specimen shrub. For berries, pair with a compatible pollinator, and avoid heavy pruning; if you must shape it, do so right after flowering so you do not remove next season's buds.
