Viburnum opulus Roseum, or the Snowball Tree, is an easy-to-grow deciduous shrub that thrives in the English climate. Its white flower heads bloom from May to June, turning pink as they mature, and make excellent cut flowers. The lobed leaves turn purple and red in autumn, adding seasonal interest. It grows in moist, well-drained soil in sun or partial shade and tolerates coastal conditions. Minimal pruning is needed, but a harder trim can rejuvenate older plants.
