Viburnum Eastern Snowball
Viburnum opulus 'Sterile'
Bright green leaves have a purplish-red fall coloring. Spectacular landscape specimen. Deciduous. Larger with age.
On display in summer, this shrub is sure to cause a stir with its mass of white snowball blooms. Plant it at the back of the border where it will rise above its companions to show off. It also looks fine as the center plant in an island bed in the lawn.
