      Pretty whatever it is. Thought first, Kolkwitzia.

      Yeah, I was thinking Prunus. Never saw/heard of a dwarf one before? Live and learn...:)

      Definitely a dwarf Prunus.
      About 3 weeks ago they were selling super ones in local Tesco for about £8.00.
      They may start as dwarf shrubs but can grow taller.

      Prunus incisa Kojo no Mai is a very popular pale pink one.
      Goes a glorious colour in the autumn.
      See post below for pics.

      prunus kojo no mai - Google Search


      Linnaea amabilis syn Kolkwitzia amabilis...are very easy to id as they have very hairy calyx.
      They will not flower for another month or two. LINNAEA AMABILIS 04-05-2007 11-03-58.jpg LINNAEA AMABILIS 07-06-2008 12-53-04.jpg

          And there was me thinking it was a pile of pebbles.
          Not used to these small pictures you get on a phone.
