Guelder Rose Viburnum opulus

AlainK

Here in France, the most common species is called "Snowball" because of its round grapes of white flowers. This type is probably very difficult to cultivate as a bonsai if you are interested in the flowers (too big)
I trained a seedling of the wild species which is very frequent in the woods around where I live because of the colour of the leaves in autumn. You can see the page here :

Nothing to do with the yamadoris I can see on the various forums I read, and even less with the masterpieces at Kokufu, but i do have pleasure in seeing the colours change through the seasons...
