viburnum tinus leaves shotgun effect
By Seaburngirl

Cant remember if the 'shootgun' effect on the leaves of V. tinus is something to worry about. its now 12'x12' and will get a serious trim after flowering. do i need to do anything else to it. dig it out and burn it wouldnt break my heart if i had to.

Sounds like Viburnum beetle larva damage. Pruning and burning the holed growth helps no end as does (yuck!) spraying with a suitable insecticide.
