Viburnum opulus Roseum
Roseum Viburnum
Roseum snowball viburnum forms large, rounded flower clusters that open green, turn white, and may flush pink. The flowers are sterile, so this selection provides a blossom display without the red fruits of typical European cranberrybush.
Its structure combines upright growth and a mounded outline. Growth is moderate. The leaves are shed for winter. Autumn foliage can bring orange and red tones.
Choose a site in full sun or partial shade. Provide well-drained soil and maintain even moisture.
