I would like to (finally) show you a picture of the Wintersweet Bush in bloom. I took a real, real close-up of the blooms (they are so tiny!) and it turned out great.

I have been gone with knee surgery and am now back home.
These were taken about 3 weeks ago when we were still in the warm spell.

Here's the whole bush in bloom. The flowers are right up against the stems. Then these grow into big seed pods by Fall. Each one holds about 2-3 large seeds, about the size of a black Sunflower kernel. As I said, I have plenty--you just have to be patient as this shrub can only be propagated from seed and it takes about 5-6 years until it will bloom.

Here's the bush.
