Viburnum macrocephalum, commonly known as Chinese snowball viburnum, is a deciduous flowering shrub known for its large, round clusters of white flowers that resemble snowballs. The blooms appear in spring and create a dramatic display against its bright green foliage. Its upright, spreading habit makes it well suited for specimen plantings, mixed borders, and large garden beds where the showy blooms can stand out.
Care Needs:
• Light: Full sun to partial sun
• Water: Keep soil evenly moist but well-drained, especially during dry periods
• Pruning: Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth
• Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to support vigorous growth and flowering
