victorgardener, I'm thinking you've hacked into my computer and found my Tree/Shrub list!! LOL Seriously, we definitely have the same "taste" :) One of my favorites in the garden is Indigofera amblyantha http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/126069/ and it blooms from June through fall! We also have Indigofera kirilowii http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/80066/ and even though it's a vigorous grower and lovely flowers, it has a short blooming period.

David_Paul, Heptacodium is a fast grower - 3' or more in one growing season! We had a beautiful tree form but for some unknown reason thought we had lost it last year - possible it was from the moles - they've "taken down" a 10 year old Dragoneye Pine in the past! The Heptacodium has sent out new growth around the base, but will take years to replace the 10'+ tree form, they usually grow more shrubby then tree like.
