Snowball

Today is the longest day of the year up here in the north. The night is only a bit longer than four hours. In other words lots of light available for the plants.

The snowball bush (Viburnum opulus) is at its best and full of flowers.

The Snowball is a very decorative shrub blooming with huge green flowers which turn gradually to brilliant white as the season progresses.

Snowball

The snowball bush (Viburnum opulus) is blooming .

In the beginning the blooms are light green and then turn to white.

Originally we only had one bush but I managed to create two more by bending a branch to the ground and letting it grow roots. Then moving the new bush to another location.
