Description:
Viburnum opulus 'Compactum' is a smaller version of V. opulus, with the same maple-like leaves which turn red in autumn, and the creamy white lace-cap flowers in spring and summer followed by bright red berries. Its compact size makes it easier to use in smaller gardens, and it copes well with pruning.
