Re: Flowering Shrubs


I'll second the comments about Itea virginica (Virginia Sweetspire) and
Clethra alnifolia being great shrubs for part shade.

To that list, I would add Fothergilla major & Fothergilla gardenii.  They have
better color in full sun, but do fine in part shade.  They need acid soil and
look great with azaleas.  

All three of these, Itea, Clethra & Fothergilla look great, to my eye, in all
four seasons.  Don't know why they aren't more used in the landscape.  They
should be!
