Welcome! to ATP. It often takes some viburnums a few years to settle in and take off. Also, it may not fruit well, even if it blooms well, unless it has another viburnum buddy near by. While I have about 10 viburnum, I do not have this one.

I do know that Virburnum odoratissimum is often used as a pollinator, but not sure the other way around.

Hi @lily2306 and Welcome. I do hope you are clear of and safe from all the bush fires. They are really frightening this time of year and seem to be really out of control in the Hunter region and north of Wollongong.

I have that Viburnum odoratissimum. It did not bloom the first year and was a bit later than expected the second year due to our drought. Now that it is established, it performs really well and fills the yard with fragrance for a week or two in Spring
Here is some info on it in your area. I do hope this helps.
