... and it's just turning a gratifying lavender-grey lilac color. Actually seeing this bush near our New Mexican front door in bloom is a rare treat - I might actually manage it, this year. It's easy to miss-co-ordinate - we've been known to come out for a long weekend, and still fail to catch it. Last year we not only missed the flowering, but were six weeks or so too late for the kind of pruning that would let it bloom copiously this year. The result is that the top of the bush, where we couldn't reach, will be magnificent. Still, on the other hand, I could reach the front door without dodging branches.
