From afar this shrub is not very impressive-looking. It's actually lots of stems coming straight out of the ground from underground runners, it does not have a single trunk. But at this time of year it blooms, and it is a good bee attractor. Up close the flowers are quite pretty. Warning - it can become a nuisance. I have some growing in the Shade Garden, the Circle Drive, and along the Boardwalk. It spreads and spreads and spreads. Pulling it up is difficult because of the underground runners. But all in all, if you have it in a place where spreading is no problem, or where a lawn mower can mow it down where you don't want it - perfect.
