After 2 weeks away some of the spring blooming shrubs are in full bloom.
At the park side in morning sun & afternoon shade the Viburnum macrocephalum
or Chinese Snowball as it is know has 6 inch balls of bloom. It has grown far too tall & I plan to cut it back after flowering. This shrub, which is protected but trees & other shrubs, often opens a few blooms early in February. I haven't tried cutting this but it looks like total bridal bouquet.
The lime green color when it first opens is most attractive.
