Viburnum x juddii is a cross between V. bitchuensis and V. carlesii that was raised by William Judd at the Arnold Arboretum in 1920. This mid-sized, deciduous shrub has rounded, dark green leaves that make it a pleasing backdrop for the garden. It is in the spring, when its flowers open in 3-inch spherical cluster, that you want to gather near to it in order to take in their sweet fragrance. The flowers emerge from pink buds and so they have a light pink influence. There is some reddening of the leaves in the fall.
Mid- to late spring. 4 ft. x 5 ft.
