Beautybush

I have found this bush and would love to find one...anyone know anything about these? or survival rate...

 

I had to check. This isn't anything we're growing around here. Wonder how hardy it is.

Found a link

 

They are a nice plant that you can often see at older houses and gardens. Not too many people seem to plant it today. I have to disagree with that link about the size. They become very large over time and are a vigorous grower. They need a lot of space.

They sometimes look a little coarse but in flower they are truly beautiful.

 

That one picture of it is gorgeous. I don't think I've seen one before. Except for the winter look of it, it sounds interesting.
