Viburnum plicatum in full bloom after 4 years

Viburnum plicatum 'Cascade' made me happy last year with the first blooms ever. This year which is its 5th year in this garden its covered with flowers...

If you take few minutes and take a closer look at the flowers, they not only flower 'in layers'....
.. but also flowers show off with ruffled, subtle patterns... 
Regretfully, Viburnum plicatum's flowers are not frangrant - which I always love to get as a bonus. This time bonus is the lenght of blooming period - 4 weeks.

Hello,
Beautiful flowers.

They are beautiful shrubs Ewa and were I to be starting this garden all over I know exactly where I'd plant them. Fragrance is always a nice bonus. xxgail

Very pretty. Reminds me somewhat of the Lacecap Hydrangea.
