‘Roseum’ is a sterile cultivar of V. opulus that produces 3″ diameter pom-pom-like globular inflorescences (snowballs) of entirely sterile white flowers. Flowers bloom in May. Flowers acquire light rose flushing as they fade, hence the cultivar name of ‘Roseum.’ Plants typically grow to 10-12′ tall with a rounded form. Sugar-maple like leaves are a soft green, generally becoming orange-red in fall. ‘Roseum’ is synonymous with Viburnum opulus ‘Sterile’. (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
