[ Clusters of tiny, very pale pink flowers with deep red centers grace the ends of reddish-brown twigs, interspersed with leaves in much the same dark shades of red. ]
These bushes outside where I go for therapy are SO pretty. They flowered for, like, three weeks, & there were still a few stragglers the fourth week. I’m glad I thought to get pictures the week before that, though.

[ Another part of the same bush, this time focusing on seven of the lanceolate leaves; four are reddish-green, almost black, while the three younger, smaller ones are a deep pinky-red. ]
They smell divine, too. I really enjoyed them while they were blooming.
