The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

My mom has what I believe is a Red Prince Weigela. That I like a lot. But hers is 8-10' tall and 5' wide. The ones on google search mostly look smaller than that. Interesting. Donโt think Iโve seen one in person.

Donโt think Iโve seen one in person. I'm not 100% that's what it is. Is very similar though. I'll go by there this weekend and get a pic and see if we can properly ID it.

Saw that Neil S. is featuring Italian jasmine as this weeks plant of the week. I may just have to try and locate one to give it a try.

Take a trip to Tyler there are some nurseries out there that are hundreds of acres, they have just about what ever you want and you will save a bunch of money, then go hit Athens on your way home. They sell flats of tomatoes of 36 count for around $11, I use to take orders from all the neighbors and make the trip every year

I like Nellie Stevens, but it is a bit โboringโ. Rose of Sharon isnโt evergreen, but itโs probably my favorite plant in our yard.
