Bodnant viburnum

Bodnant viburnum (also known as Arrowwood) is a delightful flowering tree that produces clusters of pinkish-white blooms that withstand even the most severe frost !

Blooming begins normally in mid-winter, but this year already in december.
Even the beginning of the very first fresh leaves can already be spotted !

Photo was taken yesterday on 17 December 2020 !
