    Default Snowball Bush (Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum)

    31 May 2011 Snowball Bush (Viburnum opulus 'Roseum) 31 May 2011 Snowball Bush (Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum)
    Latin: Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’. The last two years this bush has been devastated by the viburnum leaf beetle, Pyrrhalta viburni, and if attacked this year the bush was going to be removed. The bush in the front yard was removed last year, due to the ragged appearance of the damage caused by the leaf beetle. This year there is no sign of the beetle damage, and the tree is flowering in all its glory.

    Lovely! I've given up on Viburnums here, everytime I plant them (3x) they are good for a couple year then die.
    Lucky Ginny, I haven't had lamb in years because it's too darn expensive.

    Its beautiful.
    Pine trees, with their needles pointing up to heaven, represent everlasting light and life.
