Viburnum carlesii

One of the most gloriously fragrant shrubs known to man. The dense flower heads, which measure up to 3? across, produce white flowers from blush pink buds, and the perfume, which is a sweet, rich, spicy vanilla, carries a considerable distance across a lawn or garden. Plant one or two where you take your springtime strolls.
