Pink Blooming Shrubs
 
Can any of you tell me what the shrubs are that are blooming right now. We have many of them around our house and I would like to know what they are.

Thanks, s

They might be azaleas, I have a few blooming myself.

Do they look like this? http://www.scenicnursery.com/archives/loropetalum.jpg http://deliveryshrubs.com/PLANTIMAGE...oropetalum.jpg

If so, they are loropetalum. Saw a few starting to show flowers.

So nice to see flowers blooming...
 
Since the Chicago area is buried in 20+ inches of snow. I won't see a flower again for probably 2 months minimum. Wishing I was in TV!

I agree! I'm here in Rockford and I won't see any flowers for awhile! I am really looking forward to when I can be a fulltime Villager!

Flowers....are those the pretty things growing from the ground, with all sorts of colors and smelling good? I think I vaguely remember them...but all I see here in CT is white, white, white....

Why did we come back from TV in Feb???? Because we're idiots. :0000000000luvmyhors

But, we'll be back in the warm embrace of TV (see, I'm getting snow blindness and loopy)

Hurry, hurry! I see your cat loves flowers and sunshine also.
