A year or two ago this came up between the fence and the corner raised flower bed. The raised bed is about 15 inches tall and the plant is about 15 or so inches taller than the bed. It doesn't seem to get any bigger than this and doesn't bloom. Last August it started looking really sickly in the heat and I pulled it up. It's back this year and still no bloom, and the leaves look sickly to me. I thought it was some kind of wild honeysuckle, but my MIL thought it might be some kind of phlox.

Sorry about the photos. The weather is not cooperating with me for good pictures

Thanks for any help--Tam

My monitor just blew up! Smoke rolling out of the back of it and everything. So if I don't respond to postings on this thread you will know why. I grabbed my son's laptop so I could post this, of course he always has to have his puter with him so I can't borrow it.

Looks like winter honeysuckle to me. They bloom very early in spring, they blooms aren't big at all an can be easily overlooked but smell heavenly.

Thanks Trudy. I guess I will leave it and see what happens with it. If it survives the heat this summer, I will try to transplant some of it this fall to see how it blooms next year.

lol, mine just went blank, no warning at all. But I'm a happy camper because we found a 22 inch wide screen LCD discontinued Acer monitor on clearance at Circuit City for $80.00!!! Plus it has a 3 year waranty.

Tam so glad you found a good deal on a new monitor.
