These snowballs are so beautiful. Thank you for all your great and informative videos. You are inspiring confidence and enthusiasm in us newer gardeners.
Have you seen the one Linda Vater has in her garden? It’s really beautifully shaped and quite large! It has great structure even in winter with no blooms.
I got 3 of these snowball bushes because they weren't invasive. The blooms remind me of hydrangea blooms but I struggle keeping hydrangea blooms looking nice here in zone 8b as they turn brown because our nights stay hot and humid. Not the case with these. They stay beautiful until the blooms drop. Stays mostly evergreen for me, shedding some leaves but not all. Great plant.
These will take full sun here in Dallas but the leaves will curl up and look pretty ragged by end of summer. Really needs afternoon shade around here to look their best.
Great video, Jim!
I have two of these: one training to be low and wide, the other training into a single trunk tree.
I love them.
Oklahoma City 6B-7A
Thank you Jim.🍁🍂🍁🦃💚🙃
Don't know the variety but my mother had a snowball. When I move back home in a few years (after retirement), I plan to replant one at our old family home. I like this variety.
China snow balls I love that plant. Thank you Jim putnam.
Thanks Jim for showing how you grow this and also I really appreciate the pictures you have of these in the understory of larger trees--- I wasn't sure how well these would do where I am planning on siting them.
These v. macrocephalum are so nice but in a colder zone, I am planting out 3 viburnum opulus 'Roseum' liners today that are more cold hardy. I have a large area in front of some large green giant arborvitae that the snowballs will be highlighted against in spring.
OK I'm completely 100% sold!! Hope to get one soon. Would it better to plant now in Spring or is Fall okay for planting....Thanks Jim!
Me too!!
Love it. I also have one I want to tree form as it gets taller, but the way the branches fork has me wondering how I’ll accomplish it. It’s about the same size as yours, so hopefully there will be a pruning video in the future!
I absolutely love these. For sure another addition for my yard in the spring! Should have purchased a home on a LARGER lot LOL. Would these be a good candidate to espalier?
I think I may have one of those growing in my front yard, or something very similar. 🍁🍂🍁🦃💚🙃
Mine Snowball - Northside of my home… burning Summer 2023 (curling leaves)zone 8A North Texas
Hello, Are you familiar with root invasiveness of this plant? Thank you for the amazing content!! Until you mentioned it, despite being a subscriber to your other channel, I didn’t know this one existed…
Great timing Jim! Been debating getting one of these. How far away from the house would you plant this?
Please feature more plant from zone 5…
Just planted this in 8A with what will probably be around 10 hours of sun ending in the afternoon. Hope thats not too much. Time will tell
Where did you buy yours? I’m in the same zone as you.
@@brendabuenrostro8524 Home Depot has 2-3 gallon ones

Hello Jim, I live in San Antonio Texas I bought one online but in Summer did not survive 😢what should i do ? I would love to try this plant again . Thanks in advance love your channel
I’m not Jim, but another viewer said that she’s in Dallas which is zone 8a and she said in the warmer zones, it does best with afternoon shade to avoid the leaves curling and wilting. I’m in west Tx, zone 8a, and want to plant one of these so I will plant it where it gets some afternoon shade.
Hi, how many single 3 gallon plant is needed to make a hedge?
I'm confused. I have four viburnum species called snow ball viburnum that have leaves very similar to an oak leaf hydrangea. They are huge and have classic snowball type blooms. What species could these be?
mine does not rebloom in the fall.... wonder what I am doing wrong with it?
Can I grow this in Central East texas and where can I get one?
Great video! Will a viburnum propagate from a tip cutting?
Yes, you can do softwood cuttings of new growth on this beginning about 6 weeks after it begins leafing out in the spring. In colder zones, give your newly rooted viburnum cuttings winter protection for the first year.
I have ants in my pot with my one year old snowball. Anyone have a good suggestion? They are not fire ants, but I do think my snowball has been negatively impacted by the ants as it didn’t grow much this year.
I've been struggling with this plant for 2 years. It always has curled wilting leaves. 1 more year and out it goes. I feel like it may be diseased or something
did the plant recover?
@@AntLive29 I moved it to a shady spot under a tree. Two long stems grew out of it.The new leaves look good. If it flowers this year, I may keep it, but I don't recommend it for Florida zone 9 it's just too hot
