I thought this was a Hydrangea (possibly Wim's Red) but a recent visitor said it looked like a Viburnum. Any ideas gratefully received!

Looks like Cornus alba Sibirica to me.

That would be lovely, Jimmy, but I don't think it's a Cornus.

A closer shot of the flowers and leaves would help with the id.
However, looking at our Wim's Red it does look like it to me.

Thanks Owd, that’s great. Yes, later I thought I should have taken a close up 🙂

I think the name is a bit of a misnomer. The red does not appear until the flowers are on their way out.

Ah, I won't hold my breath then Owd. Do you have any pics of yours, and is it very big?

9 Jun, 2024

 

Don't think so. And no it is not very big, it has struggled to establish.

Yeah..H. Paniculata Sheila. Sorry, ot sure which one as they all look pretty similar at first.
