Viburnum opulus – Guelder Rose
Viburnum opulus, commonly known as Guelder Rose, is a versatile deciduous shrub valued for its seasonal interest and ornamental charm. In late spring to early summer, it bears large, rounded clusters of creamy-white flowers, followed by bright red berries that attract birds in autumn. Its deeply lobed foliage turns rich shades of red and purple in fall, adding to its year-round appeal. Easy to grow and tolerant of most soils, it is ideal for borders, hedges, wildlife gardens, and naturalistic landscapes.
