I love that barberry bushes flower. Unobtrusively. After they leaf out. Makes the prickles after hero hubby shaves them bearable. Almost. Here's a kind of a closeup. They are just very sweet.
Flowering almond.
The people that built this house planted this gorgeous bush in a corner on the side of the house where 1) NO ONE sees it unless they walk between the houses; and, 2) NO ONE sees it.

Lilacs. Need I say more. I can smell them just looking at the picture. Oh, wait, that's because the window is open! Silly me.

there's something about seeing and smelling lilacs that makes me just want to be nice. our own house, when we bought it, came equipped with a few roses, lily of the valley, peonies and daylillies. our neighbor told us the guys who bought and flipped the house before they sold it to us CUT DOWN THE LILAC TREE IN THE FRONT YARD!!!! you have to wonder what would drive someone to do something so depraved.it must have happened in winter.i am jealous of your lilacs.
