Snowball Viburnum – 3 Gallon

If you want to make a stylish impact but need to keep things easy care – take a really good look at Common Snowball Viburnum, (Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’, syn. Viburnum opulus ‘Sterile’). Frankly, it’s hard not to look at this ornamental flowering shrub.

This variety has been a garden favorite for centuries. An incredible flower display of huge, rounded, sterile flower clusters is produced at the end of each branch in late spring.

The flowers really do resemble snowballs. Kids just love this shrub!

If you didn’t know better, you might think you were looking at an Annabelle Hydrangea. But this Viburnum shrub grows much taller and wider. It’s truly a show stopper every single year when they bloom.

That’s why we regularly sell out of this plant. People see them around their town, and they want one in their yard. If we have some in stock, please order today so you don’t miss out on these beautiful, giant, spherical clusters of white and green-tinted blossoms.

The blooms appear in masses in May or June, depending upon where it is grown. Some of the pristine blooms will even take on a pink cast as those flower clusters age.

Dark green, shiny maple-like leaves act as a perfect backdrop to the massive flower displays. In autumn, those green leaves turn purplish and red and are a welcome fall color.

PLANTING & CARE

Common Snowball Viburnum tolerates full sun and part shade. It thrives in a wide range of soil conditions.

In dry periods, give it added moisture. Viburnums appreciate having a few inches of mulch over the roots but be careful not to pile any mulch up against the stems of the plants.

As the plants develop and age, they are best maintained by renewal pruning. After the spring blooms, remove the oldest, thickest stems cutting them off at ground level. This lets the younger, thinner stems remain and produce the new flowers. Renewal pruning allows the plants to look natural and they will flower on all of the branch tips.

If you prune back the tops of the branches to control size, always wait until the flowers are done blooming before cutting. The flower buds are borne on the previous year’s growth.
