Among the principal hardy flowering shrubs this season Choisya ternata 

 has flowered splendidly, in fact better than I have seen it for years- 

 Cytisus scopanus Andreanus was charming with its mass of bicoloured 

 flowers. Double cherries flowered well, as also have yellow and white 

 broom, lilac, scarlet rhododendrons, laburnums, and hawthorns. A new 

 acquaintance among deciduous flowering shrubs I have made this year 

 is Amygdalus nana Georgica, a beautiful double white daisy-like flower. 

 The shrub is very free flowering throughout the month of May. Cytisus 

 ratesbonensis is another free flowering shrub in season at the same time.
