    Answer

    MossGal, good morning. I can't confidently identify the species of Viburnum you have photographed, but it appears to belong to the group that includes Viburnum dilatatum and V. wrightii (these are non-native species that have escaped cultivation). Once the leaves are fully expanded, it may be easier to determine who this is (and other characteristics, such as hairs on the flower stalks and the number of bud scales covering the winter buds will be necessary to determine). I hope this helps get you started.
