About Viburnum odoratissimum 'Dense Fence' – Dense Fence Viburnum
Viburnum odoratissimum ‘VOC1’ Dense Fence is a fast-growing evergreen screening plant specifically selected for its exceptionally dense branching habit and strong upright growth. The glossy green foliage creates thick year-round privacy coverage much faster than standard Viburnum forms, making it highly effective for instant screening and hedging applications.
It performs best in full sun to partial shade and fertile, well-drained soils, adapting well to sandy, loam, and moderately heavy clay profiles with reliable drainage. Suited to subtropical, coastal, and warm temperate climates, it establishes rapidly, responds extremely well to pruning, and maintains dense foliage from ground level upward.
They look excellent when used for privacy screening, formal hedging, boundary planting, and modern landscape projects where fast evergreen coverage and low-maintenance structure are required. This variety is commonly specified for residential screening, townhouse developments, and premium landscape designs requiring dense green walls.
