[Leica] IMG: The Old Snowball Bush

[Jim Nichols]

Thanks, Lluis.  While the blooms are similar, the Hydrangea comes in 
several colors and, I believe, is usually smaller.  This one is a 
Snowball Bush Viburnum, which I have seen only in white or ivory.  It is 
older than you, and could definitely be from the time of your grandmother.

It followed us to town a few years later, and, when we built this house in 1967, it came to Tennessee.  When my gardening crew trimmed the shrubbery 2 weeks ago, it was cut back to bare branches.  For the last few days, I've watched new leaves and green blooms appear.  Since it was trying so hard to be noticed, I decided it deserved a photo today.
