The foreground is the flowering shrub I need help getting the ID. The pink crape myrtle & coneflowers are in the background of the FIRST photo. Thank you in advance!

RE: Name of this pink flowered shrub/bush

I don't understand why ken can't type out the plant name of his link - but, hey, that's his incommunicative style.

That plant is a pink flowered Clethra alnifolia, likely a nice one called 'Ruby Spice'.

People should just say what they think, and post it here.

Links often break - and then are useless to any and everyone.

Little buggers need alot of water.

Certainly one of my favorite shrubs outside of viburnums, hydrangea and fothergilla.

Internet Explorer doesn't like that link because of the scripts its running.
