My Phoenix White in the front yard had some issues this year, thought I had lost it because there was no new growth for the longest time. It looks like I did lose a significant portion of the old wood, will have to do some pruning this year. It finally put out 4 buds a full 3 weeks after the others bloomed and they were actually very pretty. Not dramatic like some of the beautiful blooms you guys posted but quietly pretty....Maybe next year I'll have a few dramatic blooms! Like my hail damaged leaves?????
