There are some plants that I don't often plant, as I feel that they are overused by landscapers in "Carpark" type plantings. Viburnum Davidii is one of those. It was a plant I got bored of and I took out of my last house garden (A new build with the front gardens "landscaped") when it became a home for all the visiting Vine weevils. - However after seeing this earlier in the week, I think I might be trying again with this shrub.

You are so right it was unfortunately over used and what a pity. As a result it isn't seen too often here in Ireland now in new planting schemes either. I not only adore its blue berries but it's veination and wine peitole - simply devine in my eyes!
