All shrubs need maintenance.what is your location and lighting?
Hi, we're in east central Alabama. The front of the house faces south. Thanks.
Weigellas are beautiful and there are varieties that are smaller. I dont know if hydrangeas grow in your zone but there are many to chose from and they need very little maintenance but the rewards are huge with blooms and foliage.
Thank you so much for your suggestions. Yes, hydrangeas do well in our area. I will also definitely look in to those weigellas. Thank you!
Hydrangias work well or go to your local nursery and see what they suggest for your area I know the people at the nurserys around here are very helpful
Thank you!
I love a combination of dwarf boxwoods, pygmy barberry and the lime green colored dwarf spirea. Mix that in with purples and blues in the ground cover. The green, burgundy, and lime look very pretty mixed together.
Sounds lovely, thanks Lynda! I'll research all of these. We don't want the plantings to block the house , so I like the idea of dwarfs and pygmys! Thank you!
