The viburnum family has many excellent plants. Most viburnums in cultivation have very attractive foliage and produce pretty blooms. The list of outstanding flowering viburnums is long but, unfortunately, there aren't too many cultivars readily available in our area that we can confidently incorporate into landscape plans. There are a few though and we will mention them here.

'Chinese Snowball' is a superb shrub or small tree that produces an amazing abundance of large, round snowball-shape flowers in late spring.

'Conoy' is an evergreen selection that produces masses of white blooms in spring that cover the attractive dark green mound of foliage.

'Snowflake' produces an abundance of white flowers in May and then again once a month all the way through October!
