Spirea and Quince in bloom

[lucky1]

I've lost the name of the Japanese Spirea, but the quince is Chaenomeles speciosa rubra (Red Japanese Quince)

Yours looks different, Don.

Trying to remember the name (brain fart thought it was Bachelor Button but that's not it)
Mine grows blue flowers, quite pretty, self-seeds but not really invasive.

I'll take a pic when they're in flower.

Mine are blue flowers as well,might be gentain,or something like that,not good with names!!!!

It's on the tip of my tongue... but there's a detour to the brain.
When I think of it, let you know.

LOL!
Ok,the leaves are twice the size of my hand if that helps huge leaves,foot or so long maybe longer than that!

[lucky1]

Nope, my plant's leaves are about 6 inches long (max).
Here's a pic of the flower bud, which'll soon open to a medium blue star-like flower.
Yours looks similar, though.

Sorry ,can't tell you the name of that flower either!!!

[lucky1]

I'm going to get a whack of plant tags...can't rely on my memory anymore.
Frustrating!

Squirrels and birds steal tags here to help build nest,better buy rock,permanent marker to write the name on!!!

[lucky1]

Don, that's a super idea. I like it!
As long as nobody moves the rocks, ha ha.
