I have a very fussy spot that I'd like some suggestions for. It is in the back of a very shady bed under the eaves of a building. It can get irrigation in the summer, but usually spends the winter quite dry. This spot is also very exposed to cold, harsh winter winds. The eaves are around 7' from the ground, so no trees or shrubs that could get too tall. I had sand cherries there for years, but they got too tall and had to be removed. Rhododendrons do great for the first year, but can't take the winter winds, even with burlap wrapping and wilt-pruf & I can't afford to treat them as annuals. This spot is at the front entrance to a building so it is very visible, and it would be nice if it could be a spring or summer bloomer. Any suggestions????
