Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’ (snowball bush, guelder rose) D9

Viburnum opulus 'Roseum', also known by the popular name "Snowball," is a highly valued ornamental shrub for its spectacular flowers and robust appearance. This variety of Viburnum is distinguished by its large, globular flowers that resemble snowballs, hence its common name. The flowers start pale green, turning to pure white as they mature, appearing abundantly in late spring or early summer.

The shrub can reach heights of up to 2-3 meters, with relatively fast growth and a dense, spherical shape. The leaves are dark green, oval to rounded, with serrated edges, and can take on shades of purplish red in autumn, adding extra color to the landscape.

Besides its aesthetic value, Viburnum opulus 'Roseum' is also appreciated for its adaptability to a variety of growing conditions. It is resistant to most soil types, prefers partial sun or shade exposure, and can tolerate very low temperatures.

This shrub does not produce fruit, unlike other Viburnum opulus varieties, making it ideal for gardens where self-seeding is to be avoided.
