Doublefile Viburnum

Viburnum plicatum f. tomentosum (doublefile viburnum) - This viburnum has pure white large hands of flowers (similar to a Lacecap Hydrangea) that lie flat on top of flowing branches.  This has been in our backyard for many, many years.  I was given another 'white flowering viburnum' wasn't given the name of the variety, just hoped it was one of the nicely perfumed viburnums like V. carlesii (Koreanspice viburnum).  This year it finally bloomed - it is the same as the large one I've had for years - not to be concerned as it is a beautifully flowering shrub and it is in a place that gets much more sun and is very visible from the house.
