Prized by florists, Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’ (European Cranberrybush) is a large, bushy deciduous shrub of rounded habit, adorned with a profusion of large rounded clusters, 3 in. across (7 cm), packed with sterile flowers in late spring. Emerging soft lime green, the eye-catching snowball blossoms change to pure white and often blush pink before they fade. They contrast nicely against the foliage of soft green, maple-like leaves that turn attractive shades of orange and red in the fall. A lovely addition to the landscape, ‘Roseum’ is a sterile cultivar with no fertile florets and no berries. Excellent cut flowers for floral arrangements.
