Purple Viburnum
Viburnum Emerald Beauty (Viburnum tinus Emerald Beauty)
Viburnum Emerald Beauty is a popular variety due to its impressive foliage and showy flowers. Purple-pink flower buds open to reveal showy clusters of fragrant, white-pink flowers during winter and early spring. The glossy, dark green foliage is lush and provides a great backdrop to the flowers as it grows to 2 m tall and the same wide. Viburnum Emerald Beauty is commonly included in a mixed planting, used as a backdrop for smaller plants, maintained in a container, included in cottage gardens, trimmed into a hedge, or included anywhere the flowering can be appreciated.
Viburnum opulus roseum (Viburnum opulus Roseum Snowball Tree)
Viburnum opulus roseum, commonly known as the Snowball Bush, is a deciduous shrub that features showy clusters of pure white flowers that appear like pompoms during spring and often fade to pink. These are borne above the lush, soft, green, maple-like foliage which provides for a stunning contrast as it grows to 3 m tall and the same wide. Viburnum roseum is commonly grown as a specimen, included in a mixed planting, used as a backdrop for smaller plants, planted around outdoor living areas, or trimmed into a hedge.
