Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Beautifully layered deciduous shrub -- to 8 ft or so though easily kept smaller -- with ruffled leaves (think Lays potato chips) tinted rose-red and turning peachy to burgundy in fall. The pompom flowers are a rich cream to pink, a rarity in the viburnum world. Great for planting in light woodlands though perfectly at home in full sun if provided plenty of water. Hard to come by. Cold hardy to USDA zone 5.
