My firebush about 3 weeks ago. Three days after the picture was made, all the leaves were on the ground. If you don't catch it at its maximum, its gone! I posted this once and I guess its floating around in cyber-space~~~LOL~If you'll notice at the bottom, lots of little bushes are trying to take over. My candy-tuft was there and its getting rooted out. I just can't keep up it seems. It is looking very wintry out there now. The birds love to nest in it in the summer!
