After a winter, a branch has dried up but the rest of the young plant is healthy and the flowers are starting to bloom, I think this viburnum will be beautiful.

Description
Viburnum plicatum Popcorn is a shrub with a distinctive tiered habit. Nicknamed the Japanese snowball, this shrub blooms with pure-white flowering pompons throughout its branches from April to May. The balls measure 8 cm in diameter.
The foliage of the Japanese snowball bush Popcorn is deciduous and dense. Glaucous green turns orange-red in autumn. The Popcorn variety is very hardy, and its flowers attract butterflies, bees and birds.
At maturity, Popcorn can reach 1.5 to 2.5 m in height. It can be grown on its own, in beds or containers.

Planting and care
The Viburnum plicatum Popcorn can thrive in both full sun and partial shade. Plant it between November and May in frost-free soil, fresh, humus-bearing, and not too dry. Avoid soil with too much limestone. This bush is low maintenance and easy to care for. Although aphids may attack it, they pose no significant danger. After flowering, prune the bush sparingly to maintain its broad and low habit. Remove branches that look out of place or ruin the plant's symmetry.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
