Hi. I'm Polly, and I'm apparently getting here late, LOL. Neal and I are the cubit owners, and luckily he's picking up the pace without me.
I love shrubs, and have planted many ornamental ones on our property. I love them all, but I would have to say my favorite is lilacs. I have around 100 lilac cultivars. Other shrubs not nearly as many, but I do love physocarpus, viburnums, spirea, some of the barberries, daphnes, and the shrubby magnolias.
Welcome Val. Glad you'll be willing to contribute to a database. That's a great offer. Thanks!
Here's syringa 'Lilac Sunday'.
