Yes, it was from a local nursery. There is some foliage emerging but it has looked the same for the past week and hasn't progressed. Is is normal for this shrub to take that long. For the shrubs that I'm familiar with, once the foliage starts emerging the leaves keep opening up and growing. The nursery was in Vermont, just over the border from me, and it was noticeably colder there (maybe higher elevation) and I was also wondering if the shrub wasn't as far along as the other ones in my yard. This is another pic that I tool at the same time and it isn't much better. i will try to get a better one tomorrow. Thanks Victor. Eleanor
