I wanted to mention 7 Bridlewreath bushes (Spirea) are in full bloom at the back of our yard. They look spectacular. What a shame it doesn’t last too long.

Oh, yes, Doc, spirea is beautiful, and as you said, fleeting. Our gardenias and magnolias are blooming, and the smell is a hint of Heaven.

Nice. My backyard has become a hobby and the goal is attractive perennials that bloom for 2 seasons. There's a climbing hydrangea back there which is blooming these beautiful fragile felt like needles. Can't imagine they'll be around for a while unfortunately. Picture from the web...



Have got 6 emerald arborvitaes and a crepe myrtle being put in Friday which will provide nice screening.
