This compact, rounded viburnum would be a beautiful shrub even if it didn't bloom. But boy, does it bloom! In May, this beauty is covered in pure white, fragrant, lacy inflorescenses. Sterile florets are nicely balanced with fertile flowers. The leathery, dark green leaves turn wine-red in early fall and are evergreen in mild winters. Plants are compact and well behaved. Minimal fruit set to date. Bred by Dr. Michael Dirr at the University of Georgia.
