These grow nice and big here though. Both of ours are 6' tall (not my picture).
And honestly, after this blueberry pot, I am pretty much content with our landscape and plants for now. The yard is pretty full.  |
Ah, we have (had...) three rhododendron under the front window, and somehow a colony of yellow jackets got into the roots of one and it's all but dead. Perhaps the yellow jackets nested underground because the one was dying. IDK, but I've got my thinking cap on about what to put in, and honeysuckle was one idea. I just need a bush, hopefully that flowers a lot all summer long, that doesn't grow taller the 4 feet, I don't want to block the window.
