Description

Viburnum plicatum 'Summer Snowflake' is a captivating deciduous shrub that enchants garden enthusiasts with its profusion of striking white flowers and its graceful, tiered branching structure. This plant truly shines during the summer months, serving as a focal point in any landscape. The large, flat-topped clusters of sterile white blooms emerge from late spring and often continue to rebloom throughout the season, creating a stunning display that draws the eye and enhances the overall beauty of the garden.

The shrub's unique architectural form is characterized by its horizontally layered branches, which not only add visual interest but also provide a sense of depth to the garden. The dark green leaves, with their prominent veining, contribute to the plant's appeal, transforming into vibrant shades of orange and red as autumn approaches. This seasonal change adds another layer of beauty, ensuring that 'Summer Snowflake' remains a standout feature even as the year progresses.

For optimal growth and flowering, this shrub thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil, demonstrating its adaptability to various soil types, including clay and loam. While it requires moderate watering, particularly during dry spells, it is generally hardy and can withstand typical UK winters without the need for protection. Additionally, the presence of fertile flowers attracts beneficial pollinators like bees, making it a valuable addition to any garden. Whether used as a specimen shrub or incorporated into borders, Viburnum plicatum 'Summer Snowflake' is sure to enhance the charm and vibrancy of outdoor spaces. Height: 300 cm (118 in) Spread: 400 cm (157 in).

How to Grow
Grow Viburnum plants in a sunny or semi shaded position, in any moderately fertile, well drained soil. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil. Plant Viburnum shrubs at the same depth as they were planted in their pots. Backfill the planting hole and water well to settle the soil.

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info
Water regularly throughout the growing season until young plants are fully established. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant. Viburnum requires little pruning. After flowering cut back stems to a healthy bud and reduce any stems that spoil the symmetry of the plant. Caution: Harmful if eaten.
