6-13-11 SHORT HILLS: We’re back in seasonally comfortably weather with a nightly sprinkle, delivering 0.65 inches over the last three nights.
More weeding and pruning has been on the menu, and I have had a full portion, but, of course, many remain.
New blooms: sweetspire, unknown shrub, with small white flowers [see below].
Pretty Berry gets berries the same vivid purple color that seem to be plastic.
Campanula, a resilient, reliable perennial.
This unknown shrub wants a name, anyone? It grows here in NJ [Zone 6], in shade and is about 8 feet tall. It is deciduous with oval, pointed leaves with a toothed margin and a small, white, minimally fragrant flower, blooming now. The bark is smooth, greenish gray with lighter, horizontal stipules.
A closer look at the leaves and flowers.
The leaves and flowers from below.
