hard to tell with that picture, can you get one close up?

Are those dried flowers on them?? If so, when was the pic taken??? Looks sort of like a Rhododendron sp., but it is realy hard to tell from this far away.

Need close ups. Azaleas? Indian Hawthorns? Can't tell.

It's a rhododendron, sheared to look like a ball. What a shame....

Th picture is a bit misleading


can be just about anything

Skimea
Holly
Hawthorne
Azalea
Inkberry even
Euonymous
And others

Appreciate quizing us. Rather you take a cutting to your local nursery

Glan - look at the photo again. Towards the bottom, you can see the distinct leaf of a rhodo. But you are also correct, the photo is kind of misleading......

Green, with brown spots. You should do something about those spots. Or get a camera that can do close-ups.

the leaves look too small to be a rhodo. Most rhodos that i have seen dont get that dense.
