DESCRIPTION
Viburnum plicatum is a deciduous shrub admired for its elegant, tiered horizontal branches laden with showy white flowers in spring. Native to Japan, China, and Korea, this shrub has dark green foliage that turns shades of red, purple, and bronze in fall. Blooming in late spring to early summer, typically in May and June, its small white flowers are arranged in flat-topped clusters up to 4 inches across, each with a pom-pom-like appearance. Preferring full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil, Viburnum plicatum is relatively low-maintenance, requiring minimal pruning. The berries that follow the flowers attract birds, making it valuable for wildlife gardens. It is commonly used as a specimen plant, in shrub borders, or as a hedge, adding depth and interest to the landscape with its graceful form and stunning floral display.
