Hunting at roadside II #2

Viburnum lantana (also known as Wayfaring rose) has lots of small identical five-petalled cream flowers form together in one large flat-topped, scented flowerhead. The small tubular white flowers are carried in dense domed heads in spring and early summer; they are very fragrant. The berries which follow are bright red, ripening to black in autumn. The berries are not poisonous, but are best avoided as they could cause a stomach upset.
