Chinese Snowball Viburnum
Available in a 3 or 7 gallon container. Minimum to purchase is 1 plant.
The Chinese snowball viburnum (Viburnum macrocephalum) is a large woody shrub, a native of China, that rewards the gardener each April and May with hydrangea-like blooms that can reach up to six to eight inches across—the largest flowers to be found among the viburnum species. It has a rounded, vase-like growth habit with multiple branches sprouting from a thick central stem. The oval leaves are 3 to 6 inches long with serrated edges, and the foliage is thick enough to make Chinese snowball an effective hedge or screening plant. In the southern end of its hardiness range, Chinese snowball is considered semi-evergreen, but for most gardeners, it is a fully deciduous shrub that loses its leaves in winter.
Chinese snowball viburnum has a medium growth rate; 1 to 2 feet per year is typical.
