as promished here is a pic of my beauty bush.
It was Feb when we moved in and my DFL told us to cut it down, it was dead. It has peeling bark so I can understand why he thought that.

pic # 2 & 3 misc from different spots in the yard.

I don't have alot of flowers, but do have alot of beds, when various leafy plants and about 30 varities of hosta's.

What are the flowers in your #2 picture? They look like peonies maybe?

Does that beauty bush get purplish pink berries on it? It's so lovely, I wonder if it would grow in my zone 4/5 area.

My roses are just now starting to open. This week we had both Rio Samba and Peace popping out.

Every single Garden is a delightful joy, and right now I think they all smell like Lilacs.

Our recent storms knocked most of the petals off a lot of my flowers. Here are my all-time fav flowers.

Any gardening experts here? Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong if my violet/blue bell flowers are blooming white this year?
