Viburnum 'Pragense'
Snowball Shrub
This hybrid viburnum should find good acceptance with the crowd who likes all evergreen plants. Fast growing to 2-2,5 m in ten years, eventually reaching 3 m tall. Some pruning helps to thicken up young plants. Shiny leathery leaves. In spring, pink tinged buds open to umbels of white, spicey scented flowers followed by red berries turning shiny black.
