Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’

Snowball Tree

A much-loved old garden shrub whose spectacular spring display has ensured its place in gardens for generations. In late spring, the branches are laden with great rounded heads of flowers, 7–9cm across, opening a fresh apple-green before turning creamy white and eventually taking on the softest blush of pink as they age. The handsome, maple-like foliage is attractive throughout the growing season before colouring brilliantly in shades of orange, crimson and purple in autumn. A vigorous, long-lived deciduous shrub, growing 3–4 metres tall and 2.5–4 metres wide, it makes a splendid specimen in a lawn or a generous mixed border. Best grown in full sun to light shade in reasonably fertile soil with regular moisture during dry periods. Very hardy and tolerant of severe frosts.
