I went straight to the photo without reading and thought "way early!".
Then I looked at who from and where. A beautiful tree (shrub) that tends
to flower right about when the Bearded Iris do. There's also Chionanthus
chinensis, but I like the American one better. Never thought of it before,
but I think they could help set a great white backdrop and contrast in
texture for dark cultivars. I first saw Chionanthus in bloom growing wild
in Virginia and North Carolina and thought "wow, I like that".
