I have ninebark here for years. Blooms and all. I have some lilies planted in front. I have so focused on just getting plants that grow and come back here that, other than height and width, I haven't paid much attention to color. I did have a comment that I had too much in the way of iris leaves and needed to get more variation in texture. Nature cured that and killed (rotted) all my iris over winter. I keep trying but they(TB and such) will never do well here. I am now trying pots for the second year. I keep them in the garage then move them out in the spring when below zero weather is unlikely.
