Shrub to ID
« on: March 30, 2012, 11:39:24 AM »
I know I asked this in 2009 but cant find the post.

A friend has this shrub in full flower in her garden right now. The flowers cover the shrub

Do you know what it is? She thinks Omeiensis but I cant find the name in books or the internet

I can see how the name could have been mined up Mark but omiensis is a specific name, not generic.
