WAYFARING TREE 
Viburnum - The Viburnums 
Ornamental hardy shrubs, which should be used 
extensively for screen and border planting. Most of 
them are large shrubs with white to pinkish white 
flowers in flat clusters followed by red, white, blue, 
or black berries. The foliage is very attractive and 
beautiful. They will grow in any soil, in sun or in 
partial shade. 
GARDENIA-SCENTED SNOWBALL (Viburnum Burk- 
woodi). New, fragrant, hardy shrub with waxy, pink- 
ish white flowers. Semi-evergreen. Brilliant autumn 
foliage when grown in dry locations. Similar to 
Viburnum Carlesi, but blooms one to two weeks 
earlier. The most outstanding shrub introduction in 
recent years. 
FRAGRANT VIBURNUM (V. Carlesi). A shrub of low to 
medium height and round habit, with spreading 
branches. Sizable elliptical leaves, dull green and 
slightly hairy above, and pale and very hairy be- 
neath, offer a fine foliage effect. Fragrant white and 
soft pink flowers are borne in dense hemispherical 
clusters early in the spring.
