its in a 5 1/2in koban shaped pot, the nebari is 4in and the tree is now 8in from the soil.
...so much for DWARF viburnum. I guess ive got some expiramenting to do. I have another one that I havent done anything to cuz they are supposed to flower and I am not sure how pruning affects it ... its all a learning process I guess
