Viburnum opulus (Guelder Rose)

LOCATION: MARCHESTER METROPOLITAN CAMPUS



The plant I have found was growing in an urban environment with a very little soil. The flowers started to bloom as it is an early spring, however I could only find them on the very bottom of the plant. The surrounding buildings could restrict the plants growing room and the direct sunlight, however it grew very well considering the conditions. The flowers of Guelder Rose are small, white in the summer and have five petals. The flowers form in a button like bunch at the top of the stem which sprout separately from the ground.
