Chris,

Have been redesigning sections of the garden with more shrubs. Developed an interest in the smaller sizes that were new to me.

Couple of Abelia in standard size and a smaller one. Some really great new color foliage in dwarf Barberrys.. I am into the yellows and browns. Dwarf Butterfly bushes…. Two feet tall… cool. Getting interested I dark foliage Diervillas 3 to 4 feet. Have a new dwarf hydrangea Tiny Tough Stuff. I did break down and purchased standard size Black Lace Sambucus. Refound Spirea and tiny Viburnums. Finally a Midnight Wine Weigelia. Now looking at the shorter dark foliage hardy Hibiscus.
