What survived...

Looks like we can finally call it - the Eastern Red Bud tree did not make it back. It was planted in early Nov, but there's no sign of life now. We'll probably wait a bit longer to replace it just b/c we have no clue what to put in its place.

On the other hand, the vine (have to see if I can find the name or type) that we planted looked completely dead only to sprout leaves in the last few days. It's the strangest thing I've seen. The vine looks seriously dry & dead, but the leaves are poking out.

We relocated a few of the dwarf Korean lilacs so that we can add an evergreen(s) to the front of the house. We want something that will stay green or with color through the winter since everything we planted dies off or goes dormant. We're considering Firethorn (Pyracantha) since it's orange berries hold through winter. Or there's Rhododendron...
