My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Flower on Shrub ID Help please

11 years ago
last modified: 11 years ago

My Grand daughter has been quite taken with this shrub this spring. It is about 8 feet tall and has a lovely scent. The flower clusters are about the size of a softball. She thinks I should be able to ID, but I'm unsure. I think it is a type of Vibernum but not sure. I'm trying to upload a photo but it isn't working.

    There are a lot of Viburnams but I'll take a guess that it is Viburnam tinus, aka Laurustinus.
