Thanks for the Ping.
I dug up a rose bush and put it in another area. It was struggling by my front door. I placed it in a higher elevated area with lots of sun. Hopefully it will do much better.
Placed the Bitter Sweet seeds in a clay pot outside. They were in my freezer all winter.
My two Weigela plants are doing very well. I’m so glad someone here suggested them.
You are welcome. Sounds like some progress has been made.
