Viburnum plicatum ‘Tomentosum’, or Japanese Snowball Bush, is a striking deciduous shrub admired for its distinctive tiered form and elegant seasonal displays. In spring, broad clusters of white lacecap flowers are gracefully borne along the horizontally layered branches, contrasting beautifully with the dark green, textured foliage. As the seasons progress, the leaves transform to rich shades of purple and red, adding a vibrant autumn display before falling. Tomentosum brings a refined, architectural quality to the garden. Ideal as a specimen plant, within mixed borders, as a backdrop for smaller shrubs, or featured in cottage and woodland gardens, it lends dynamic structure and year-round interest to any landscape.
