Zulauf Viburnum

The Japanese Snowball is botanically known as Viburnum plicatum 'Popcorn'. This plant is a deciduous, bushy ornamental plant with an elegant vase-shaped growth form, reaching about 1.8 meters in height. It is particularly suitable for Japanese gardens or ornamental gardens, where it adds accents with its simple, harmonious appearance and white flower color. The blooming period is in May when the plant unfolds its delicate white flowers, giving the garden a soft and tranquil look.

For optimal growth, the plant requires well-draining, nutrient-rich soil that should be kept adequately moist but not waterlogged. It prefers locations that are either partially shaded or sunny, allowing it to adapt flexibly to various garden areas. Its frost-resistant properties also make it ideal for regions with cold winters, as it can survive well without special protective measures.

With its low maintenance needs and ease of care, it is perfect for gardening beginners. Being non-toxic, it poses no danger to children or pets. The combination of its attractive vase-shaped growth and simple care makes it an excellent choice for gardens where an aesthetic yet low-maintenance structural plant is desired.
