Viburnum opulus 'Roseum', commonly known as snowball, guelder rose, or arrow-wood, is a versatile and attractive shrub that adds beauty to any garden. With its abundance of beautiful white-light green flowers and berry-like fruit, it is not only aesthetically pleasing but also provides interest throughout the year.

One of the distinguishing features of Viburnum opulus 'Roseum' is its inflorescence, which forms a stunning panicle of flowers. These flowers are unscented, but their unique color combination of white and light green, specifically shade 157C, creates a visually striking display. The flowers appear in spring and continue to bloom for several weeks, attracting bees and butterflies to the garden.

The plant itself has a woody structure, with simple leaves that are bicolored, adding further visual interest. The leaves have an attractive green color and occasionally display patterns, enhancing the plant's overall appeal.

Viburnum opulus 'Roseum' thrives in both sunny and semi-shaded areas, making it a versatile choice for various garden conditions. It is also known for its excellent winter hardiness, being able to withstand even the harshest cold climates (USDA-zone 1, 2, 3, 4). This makes it a suitable option for gardeners in regions with harsh winters.

This Viburnum species typically grows in an erect manner, reaching a height and width of 10-15 feet when fully mature. Its size makes it an excellent choice as a standalone shrub or as part of a mixed planting. The dense foliage and attractive flowers make it suitable for hedges or borders as well.

While Viburnum opulus 'Roseum' offers many benefits to a garden, it is essential to be cautious as the plant has a fairly low toxicity if consumed. It is advisable to keep it out of reach of children or pets who may unknowingly ingest parts of the plant.

In conclusion, Viburnum opulus 'Roseum' is a charming shrub that brings beauty and interest to any garden. With its stunning panicles of unscented white-light green flowers, attractive bicolored foliage, and winter hardiness, it is a versatile and valuable addition to the landscape. As long as its potential toxicity is appropriately managed, this snowball shrub can be enjoyed for its beauty and resilience.
