Interested in Doublefile viburnum

Thoughts on use in zone 5? How big will it get here in part shade? What does my area need to worry about for pests and disease? Read that Doublefile is somewhat aphid proof and that Judd is resistant to viburnum leaf beetle. Are these concerns for me?

Design-wise, how would you use? I'm looking to fill an opening between two fences in the back corner of the yard. Will anchor a triangular bed that is pretty deep in the corner. I'm looking for an alternative to plunking down three Emerald arborvitae or similar evergreen. What is their mature shape? Would you underplant or are they as wide at base as at the top? How fast do they mature? Thanks!
