This is a great plant. Wonderful fragrance. Sorry I did not see the above note earlier. It is without doubt a 'Mohawk'.

The plant pictured above is not Mohawk Viburnum. It appears to be Viburnum plicatum tomentosum, or Doublefile Viburnum. Mohawk Viburnum has fragrant flower clusters that are semi-snowball in shape. A great plant, and so is the Doublefile Viburnum!
