I do too. They are such easy care shrubs. I have a new one this year that has darker blooms and pretty coloured foliage. 😍 @hebelover

Wow! That is spectacular! I have one of these but think it may be in the wrong position. In what position/aspect is yours Diane?

Thanks so much Angela. Mine is in the back of my west facing border. It gets lots of afternoon sun. It has never looked this colourful in the autumn before and I have had it for years. The weather people are saying the cool nights all of September and October have caused the vibrant colours this year. Everything is so much more vibrant this year. We may get snow tonight. 🤦‍♀️ @italydiva

Thanks Shelley. We have the cool nights all of September to thank for our vibrant fall colours this year. We may get snow overnight. 🥶 Then up to 18 degrees for the weekend - 64 degrees F @ShelleySnyder

@hkyfvr I’ve got a real thing for them lately. Think the flowers are just adorable. Have one that’s never flowered but I even love it without blooms. It’s a strange growing thing, almost grows horizontally 😜

I have three out front. They are in a small garden near the road. They do not grow big there but they are healthy and bloom every year. I have a gold mound and a bridal wreath and a princess one in that garden. 👍😍 @kez001uk

The gold mound is my oldest one. It has yellow foliage and light purple blooms. It needs a good hard prune as it is getting woody and leggy looking. 🤞🤞 @kez001uk
