Keith, that's really cool!
I dug up a few pretty big ones of these (about 3-5 ft. tall) from my Aunt's yard & put them in my yard in OH, back in 1998. They were really cool, blooming white flowers with a red center, and would usually start doing it within a day or 2 of July 4th. I never trimmed them, one got pretty tall.
These pics are about a year after I put them in.
(All of the pots are off of the ground because I had tons of rabbits there, who would eat anything in a pot.)
That's a 6-ft. fence.
Does H. syriacus always have a leaf of this shape?
