I don't know, they all kinda look like they've seen their day. The crepe myrtles look awful. They are notorious for leafing out later in the year, they like it hot. I usually think mind is dead just about the time it starts to sprout out again. Usually grow out pretty quickly though once they start. If you want something that flowers, has wonderful scent, lives practically forever, and doesnt need pampered, try lilacs or forsythia. I know they are over used (in every yard) but who cares! They are nice. I don't know what zone you are in, but they do well over a large area.
